Hi all, well my engine decided to dump oil in cyl 3 a few weeks ago.
got head rebuilt, got engine sorted( 2 new pistons and all new rings) and now all back together but i need some advice on the setting up of the whole timing before i fire it up.
now i know you line up the 2 holes on the wheels on the end of the cams with the 2 point on the bit connected to the thermo housing.
lined up the crank marker( timing mark) to TDC on cover.
Piston 1 to TDC( piston 4 does it as well ??)
now i line up the dizzy to No1 on the cap with the pints open ????
wont fire, but previously after head skim before i had the same problem but if i lined up the rotar arm to No4 it fired, seemed like it was 180dg out....
If there are any local( Bradford, west yorkshire) mechanics willing to pop over and help out there could be some beer tokens involved.
any help/advice would be extremely welcome as i dont want to start turning it over and mash it all up after spending a packet getting it sorted.
hope any one can help.
