right angle dist with reduction gears

Posted by wilson on April 30, 2007 at 17:44:49 from (71.49.74.187):

This is new to me after over 1/2 century of 2 and 4 cy tractors mostly. Last week worked on putting live pump on I H model H. with the pump on his mag was too long and to close to the oil filter. I had a right angel dist from a 6 cylinder something or other. The drive was fine but the dist part (6) cylinder part junk. I needed 4 cy anyhow so took another IH dist (horizintal type) removed gear on junk 6 cy dist, put it on the IH 4 cylinder. All fit nicely and turned freely. Installed on H ,set timing. It hit some backfired didnt run them hit twice backfired. Checked timing its way off. I thought the used pump must have a shered key of something. After a lot of thinking I remover the whole dist assembly put in vise on bench. Turns out when the drive is turned 2 rounds the distributer only turns 2/3 of a round. It takes 3 drive revolution to turn the dist one full round. What would this right angle 6 cylinder setup have been on to start with. I got it with other parts so don't know the original use. It had to have been from something with a different ratio on the dist drive from the cam. I was thinking possibly an oliver 70 as the dist could have been on one I hauled off, saved fenders ,weights,and single front wheel and sent the rest on a big boat to China!!!
