Re: sync / link questions not in book...
Ahhhh. it does. There is the cable that attaches to the main big lever, then a smaller metal rod that attaches to the cam plate. It is adjustable.<br /><br />Adjusting that rod would indeed get the cam plate closer to the cam roller, but that would not answer the question of is my ignition timing correct? <br /><br />
<br /><br />refereing to image above (
http://www.lot-o-nothin.com/lotonothin/viewimage.cfm?id=101 in case you can't see it.)<br />A: cable adjustment<br />B: Rod from throttle lever to cam plate.<br />C: Timing advance lever.<br />D: Threaded adjustable section of rod to cam plate.<br />E: Cam roller / follower on carb throttle linkage.<br />F: Linkage to timing advanced (no adjustment)<br />G: Idle speed adjust. brings throttle and timing up.<br />H: WOT stop adjustment (edited)<br /><br />After I find TDC, do I adjust D (with timing light of course) to set the initial idle timing to the spec? making sure that it is not pushing the throttles open at idle.. riiight?<br /><br />Then, if E is out of range, do I need to adjust D to bring them together? <br /><br />If the idle timing is 100% correct, and the roller and cam line up perfect, then the WOT timing MUST be correct, correct??<br /><br />The cam plate is shaped like it is to change the timing / rpm curve, rather than a linear timing change through the rpm range I assume. Thats why the short mark is so important.<br /><br />Then the little adjustment wheels at the cable (A) are for slack adjustment?
