A small hand mirror will give you visual access into the timing hole.

Inside the distributor cap, there is a little "pin" in the middle (to connect the fire comming from the coil to the rotor). It can fall sometimes (happend to me 3-4 times). Make sure it's still there.

ok.aint got a small mirror, cut a Disk into strips, put strip in hole and can see red notch to rear of trike...nothing else tho. A buddy came over and said it all need to be replaced, cap, rotor, condenser, points, wires..and then told me I aint got the tool for gaping and timeing, nor the savey if I had the tools...he's right!...
before I could call the mechanic, another buddy called and said he has ALL the tools and it would be fun for him to help me...I think his PTSD meds are too strong...but I'll humor him, and suprevise while he does the work. 1st things first..exchange the Autozone coil for a Blue Bosche, and order a manual...but which one is best, Clymer or Haines? |
