I have been having problems with my fathers massey 135 that has the perkins 3 cylinder gas engine. The dealership tried to get it running properly but within a week it is back to the way it was. Out of frustration I left it. I picked it up today from the farm and brought it to my garage where my tools are and I have heat to work.
I am going to start from scratch starting with ignition (carb has been rebuilt by dealer and checked over by a friend that rebuilds carbs on the side so I have ruled out carb issue for now) I am wondering where the timing marks are on the perkins gas engine. There is a hole in bell housing on left side of engine but have also read there is marks on the pullys. Need to know this as this spot will be where I point the timing light. I believe the continental and perkins have different timing mark locations and that's why I cant seem to get a definitive answer.
Any help is appreciated.
