I bought a mag for my JD B and was going to retime the cam and gov to mount the mag to test for spark. It's pretty much stripped down to the frame, with the crank and cam shaft the only remaining engine parts installed. My plan was to retime the cam because its off, then to retime/reinstall the gov. I know I don't really need to retime, but this is my first restoration/overhaul so I thought some practice wouldn't hurt anything, right? Anyway I can't seem to make the cam timing match the service manual instructions. And I can't even make the governor go back into it's housing much less retime it. I admit that I'm very inexperienced. Any suggestions, anything at all? Thank You in advance
