timing

Saw this ad next to incogrhino's injury post .... NICE!

This engine would not start after some mods The cam being one of those Below are some pictures of what I am looking at. I believe this to show that the factory dots are no good and the blue is the correct position? The black dot is the hole for the compression release spring. A look at...

Which one of these is correct? Seems its either just before or just after on alignment. This is affecting how much I have to grind away on the crank with the new cam Thanks in advance

Hey guys, I installed my arc billet flywheel on my new predator engine last night with the stock flywheel key and it fired up on the first pull. I just wanted to hear it run so let it idle for 2-3 minutes and it ran smooth. I read the timing is about 24* on the arc flywheel and I see people...

I just installed the billet flywheel and 8 degree advance timing on my engine. The former being WELLLLLL overdue. Now when I have it running it wont idle, top end is fine. If I turn the idle screw up it starts moving and still dies. What's wrong, also didn't do this with stock timing?

So havent been on here in quite awhile, but ive got a home to put the clone on now so im tinkering again. I was wondering if anyone could help give me a place to start on my timing. I only have stock, 4 degree, and 8 degree keys, but could get others if necesary. Build specs: Standard...

I lost the key that goes inbetween the timing gear and crank, pm me if u have one

I feel silly asking, but I'd rather ask a silly question than mess something up. I bought a new flywheel from Dover for my blue clone. I has a bigger cam, FT piston, 20 over rod, and a cheater carb going in it, as well as a 14cc head. I can't remember if I've done anything else off of the top of...

gx160: billet rod .265 dyno cam header air filter ported head .41 jet I switched to e85 because it was cheaper around here and I heard I can advance the timing. I was wondering by how much? thanks SJ

I haven't posted in a while, but I'm finally getting time to work on my bike again. To get some more power, I was browsing OldMiniBikes warehouse and saw keys. I have a billet rod, PC-150 cam and double springs with innerspring removed. I don't know what degre to advance or in what direction. What's the...

Hello, Need to get a hold of some old data on the AH58 engines. The port timing difference between an AH58 and AH58S. Thanks in advance. Mark

Ok so I bought a brand new Honda gx160 and figured out the shaft was too short for my minibike. I got it all opened up and swaped the shaft for my Jiang Dong clone shaft that was longer. I also swaped the flywheel from the clone into the Honda because the clones flywheel could power the...

OK, my dad and I are rebuilding an HS40 engine. Actually, its more like I'm buying parts and he is doing the work while I'm at work.. It's called keeping the old man busy during retirement.:laugh: Anyway, the HS40 had 60 psi of compression so today he installed new valves and lapped them...

which gx160 flywheels have the 4 advance built in? do the stock honda ones have it built in thanks in advance and no i "THINK" it does i want YES or NO

I am setting the ignition timing with my dial indicator. The specs call for .060 to .070 before tdc. Has anybody played around to find out where the engine will start best? Right now I'm at .066.

I have a new Predator 6.5 with the aftermarket air filter and adapter and plan to re-jet the carb, add header with briggs type screw on muffler, and want to advance the timing. I would like some input on how many degrees I should advance the timing and maybe the size jets I should use in the...

I came here the other day, looking for the proper way to set the points and timing, on a Tec 3.5, at least that's what I think I have, it's a motor that I got on a bike last year, no recoil housing, therefore no numbers. Last summer I switched parts with some parts I had to make a whole motor...

I need help lining up the dots on the crankshaft an camshaft I lined them up at tdc bolted up the crankcase and tried to start and wouldn't start so I reopened the crankcase and the timing was off.. I took the camshaft out and when I did the valve opened an a rod slid out, now I can't get the...

I took off the stator installed new coil, set the gap, etc. and am trying to get it timed right. Went thru the manual specs for H35 and finally got it running, after a ton of pulls it will start if I have the throttle advanced all the way, but as soon as I hit the gas a little it will bog down...

Hey there folks I have a 1994 honda z50 that I am trying to get running. It started out with very low compression and no spark and I have replaced the stator and put on new piston/rings and gaskets and everything seems like it should run EXCEPT..... When the T (timing) mark is matched up on...
