Well I took the case apart (will post pics if my home internet ever starts to work). I found the timing marks on the crank right away, but I had to look and look to find it on the cam. Finaly found it.... on the back of the gear!? WTF
If you follow the tooth the mark was on it was close, but not right. Surely these gears are not meant to be reversable? Also what is that little nub on the end (by the flywheel) of the crank? Should it be centered? The saga continues -Pete |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) I knew something was not right!!
Sorry it has taken me so long to post, but the home internet is down still! I have to go Christmas shopping today so I won't get much done, but I will try and get a Allen socket to get the cam gear off, those bolts are tight as shit! It looks like he used wheel bearing or just plain grease to lube everything up, I will pick up some more grease today while I am in town. Another fun fact is that he let grease get into the bearing journals (behind the bearings). I don't know who put the case together, I bought it from a fella named Brad Stees, but I think he got it from someone else. If I ever get email back I will try to get a name. Thanks again everybody -Pete PS: Jake I may have time to disassemble the motor the rest of the way tonight and I will call you tonight if that is still OK |
