Who ------- cares? It's a Hyundai.

It has to have some sort of marker. Look harer. You could just try not to move it and if it runs like *** after you're done, you fucked up.

seriously, or there's a really gay way of setting the car at tdc by removing the #1 spark plug and using something long and soft (like a little wooden dowel or something) and turning the engine with it in the hole, when it reaches it's highest point before starting to go back down, that's tdc, then you can make some effin marks. or you can contact the dealer and ask someone in the service dept. if you can't find a manual.

Yes sir. If I were you, I would crank the motor by hand before I cranked it over to make sure the valves are in proprer working order. You never know when you have unknown people working on strange cars.
