| You can check the timing between the crank and the valve train by removing the N0.1 side valve cover and watching the intake valve at TDC. With the crank aligned up @ TDC the Intake valve and exhaust valve should be closed. When you rotate the crank in the direction of rotation the intake valve should immediately start to open, note the location of your rotor which should be just before aligning with NO.1 plug wire due to your 8 or so degrees of timing. If any of this is off you could have one or several problems including the: timing chain, dist. tooth off, damper slippage. You can also verify that the valves are closed by placing the #1 @ TDC removing the valve stem from you compression test gauge and apply shop air around 60 PSI. Then, listen at the carb. for hissing air and at the tailpipe, If you hear any air then the valve is not closed at TDC and something is off or the valve is leaking. Also, with the air applied when you rotate the crank either way a valve will start to open and you will hear the air hissing from the carb. opening or the tailpipe. Your really have to remove the valve cover to note the location of the valves in relationship to the crank. Any way this worked for me several times. Maybe you can make sence of it. RC. |
