I just fired up my rebuild a couple nights ago and have some questions on how it starts. Its a C113 with an H4 Mag. If I spin it with the starter with the mag off it spins reasonably but when I unground the mag it stops the rotation goes into a spin/no spin/reverse spin a little/spin mode...after a couple of these it lights right off. I suspected advanced timing so with the engine off, I brought it to TDC, compression stroke, #1 cyl. I then loosened the mag and rotated the bottom of the mag towards the block and temporarily secured the bolts. I then did two revolutions of the engine and stopped at TDC (prior to assembling the head, I used a dial indicator to get #1 at TDC then marked the crank pulley and timing cover so I have a good point of reference). I then was planning to rotate the Mag away from the block till the impulse tripped and secure it there. I find the impulse trips exactly when I get to TDC so I didn't have to move it away from the block. Is it typical for a engine to have trouble deciding which way to turn ? If I retard it will it only fire after TDC when starting? Every auto on the road fires before TDC and they don't have trouble deciding on a direction to rotate.
thanks for the input.
