Mike & Scotty: Would you guys believe this, I've never seen the timing marks on my Super A or 130. Now they are on front pulley for a 140 so hard not to see them.

By the way, I learned all of this from a guy that rebuilt about 6 Farmalls per year in the 1950s. IH dealer used to consult him for advise. His name was Russel. IH dealer told my dad once if he had a half dozen Russels around his district, he wouldn't even need a back shop.
