Timing on BC 144 in 3444 backhoe

Anonymous-0 · Jan 21, 2013

Working on the neighbors 3444 with BC144 what should the timing be set at and at what RPM? We have no books for it. Thanks AJB

Hi Farmall47, I looked in my Operator manual:
Points - 0.014,
Plugs - 0.024 to 0.026
Tappet(Hot) - 0.022
And for timing consult IH but I searched this site and found:
Your BC144 engine does not have a timing chain.
Set points as .014" Static timing (non running or idling)for early engines is 5 degrees BTDC. Timing at high RPM at full advance is 39 degees BTDC. Timing marks are on the crank pulley.

Hope this helps

Mine has been gone long enough that I can't remember anything!
But JimB says the marks are on the pulley. So simply set it to the advanced mark with the engine wide open(fully advanced) then check that the timing backs off as you slow the engine to idle.
