You need to roll the car with vehicle in gear (if you have a manual transmission - which of course you do if you are working on a 1M). Rolling the car a couple inches will be enough to position the valves. I strongly advise removing the spark plugs which makes rolling the car much easier (no compression).

If you are working on an automatic you will have to turn the crankshaft with a ratchet or other tool.
