Well-known Member
ok, been working on and off for a time,,can't get timming right, other club members trying to help,, is their any one/place that i can get the info/pics on the firing order on my oliver cle-trac h-g,,, thanks bob
 
thanks larry for reply, should have been more specific,,, try to get pics/info as what/where the timmng marks, [pins] would be in reference to cam and dist postition, seems like we can"t get markings alined..without tearning into front end to see if gears have been messed with...bob
 
If the lugs on the mag drive are in the wrong place when at tdc, then you don't have enough twist on the mag to get timeing right.I think the lugs need to be crossways.Someone help me out if wrong.
 
Correct mag timing is 14 degrees or 1 15/16 inches before top dead center, which is the same as "SPK" mark on the flywheel. Before installing mag make sure rotor is timed to drive gear. Turn drive coupling in opposite direction of normal rotation until white line on rotor shows in center of distributor cap window If flywheel "SPK" mark is in center of bellhousing timing hole, mag coupling should align with hole.
 
last line should have read magneto coupling should align with DRIVE not hole. sorry for type o
 
As a starting point (apologise for the puns) I always set the timing with the piston just beyond TDC when the mag impulse trips. It will run no bother at that and you don't get a bad arm/shoulder from kick-backs (mine are all hand cranked). A xenon light, once the engine is running OK, can be used to fine tune the timing, if required.
 
thanks everyone for replys, will pass on to members helping me, will keep checking if anyone think/has more ideas..bob
