Watch the Rocker arms in the firing order sequence after you find #1. After the Intake valve closes for the appropriate cylinder it should be coming up on the compression stroke.

Each cylinder will go through the following in Order Intake:Compression:Power:Exhaust hence why you can take note of the intake rocker arm on the desired cylinder,as it closes the piston is coming up on the compression stroke for that cylinder.
