As I mentioned earlier, they will only both engage when the motor is in the correct position (horizontal cylinder at TDC on the power stroke). Using a torch, you can see where the pins locate through the access hole.

Just remember to remove the pins before you try to turn over the motor!
I'm not paranoid yet, the drugs don't work this early.
