bad timing/light , used my light, and turned rehostat, turned it to center was far left . Had to open throttle a hair for it to start though.
Ran sounded good.

thought the "camarillo" engine was a "newish" 2.0 (gerber?). if it was a 1.7, i don't understand the tear down. it seemed to run quick and you didn't have any problems pulling the grades on the way home.

Disaster averted! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rocking nana.gif)
Inded something ...let go!
one of the rockershaft retaining nuts & wavey lock washers
decided they werent going to hold the whopping 10lbs of torque! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif)
The nut may be wore out from looking at it. Problem is finding another
11mm on a sun. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/chair.gif)
I just went through this drill recently looking for simple tune up parts for the teener and not a single flaps caried all of what I was after.
The nut left some neat little ricotche markes inside the cover & head but didnt seem to cause any real damage.
Ill try to loctite it and if doesnt hold Ill start seaching.
Kev you must of missed a bunch of previous posts cuz we went into some detail.
2.0 came out as its the #'s maching eng. for the LE.
1.7 built to 1911 to replace. Maiden voyage ..bang. Up to speed? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/burnout.gif)

Nah Troy it was just stripped. It would hold but just barely.
For good measure I chk both sides . (IMG:style_emoticons/default/chair.gif)
For any of you you dont have one, go out and get an
"inch lbs/NM" torque wrench. Much more acururate on the
small torque settings.
They were all on the light side, & one more was stripped. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/thumb3d.gif)
Fired right up and sounds good though Ill do a oil change and valve adjust
heading for Portland.

I have a set of the 8mm studs and nuts too in the stash if you need them.

"just needed timing lite and adjusting the reostat" WTF, can I get you to junk that reostat yet, Rich?

Let Blair and I know when you want to tune it. It will help if you drive down this way, heck drive it to work and then swing by. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/thumb3d.gif)

I do have a little time today. More on Wednesday and Thursday. I pm'd you my phone number. With the tragic drowning of my old phone in a pool in Sacramento, all of my phone numbers are gone. Bad for work stuff. Good for vacation stuff.
Talk to you soon.
Did Troy get the bumpers installed?

Hey quad,
(IMG:style_emoticons/default/welcome.png)
Post a WTB (want to buy) ad in the classifieds and you will get better responses.
Cheers and welcome, if you can, you should come down to Portland this weekend and meet the crazys in person.
They are a lot less scary when you seen them up close!

Not really. A bunch of us on the north end meet semi regularly on Tuesday nights, or occasional work parties. We've had a hard time getting everyone together with the south end... don't think it will happen on a weeknight because of the distances. Hopefully some weekend. Maybe a Bremerton AX.

IF we get the team to Btown for the races, we can (IMG:style_emoticons/default/jsharp.gif) back here at the ranch and swap war stories!

For a second there I thought that you were talking about B-ham, not B-town. I was starting to get all excited too 'cause I'm moving to Bellingham in a couple of weeks . . . I guess I'll still have to drive out to the peninsula on occasion then.
