To get the right timing the concave screw is now off centre of the hole, not touching but not leaving much room for the tapered spring? Maybe I have overlooked something? bearings seem OK as no visible slop ???? Thanks [Reply]   [No Email]

Did you set the points gap before you set the timing? 75 Tips [Reply]  [No Email]

Turn in wrong direction & you can not get the desired setting. [Reply]  [No Email]
