Alright. More questions. I was not getting
the mag timed, and I think I see why. I
read on another forum that the drive should
be horizontal when #1 is tdc, which #1 is
tdc in the pic. Did the thumb over plug
hole, watched with a pen light until all
the way up. The timing mark on the fly
wheel us off too. Fire mark is slightly out
of window when tdc. I was told this engine
was assembled by some Ffa kids years ago.
I'm thinking they got something off a tooth
somewhere. Can I simply pull the governor
cover and correct the drive issue? Are
pieces going to fall everywhere? I'm a
little over cautious on stuff like this,
but hate to mess stuff up. Thanks
