Hello. My first post. I just acquired a Broncco (Tomahawk?) with an Aspera/Tecumseh 3.5 hp motor. I need to know the valve timing. There is no mark on the crankshaft gear. Thanks for any help.
if i'm correct? most cam gears(crank) on a a Tecumseh small block are press fit with a dot mark on one of the teeth. your engine looks to have a keyway on it. so i'm assuming that would be your timing mark? don't know much about a Aspera/Tecumseh 3.5 hp motor.
sure someone will google it and chim in...

oh ok. well it looks like the mark your looking for. if its not then i dont know. maybe the gear was put in backwards? hope you find your solution. have a great day.
No luck. If I use the key as a mark it puts the motor in time- TDC with the valves closed. But it barely ran and the oil ran out. This motor is beat. I just was hoping it wasn't shot. If someone wants it, I don't. Let me know.
