timing MD gas side

Posted by Greg on July 10, 2000 at 20:23:09 from (216.42.67.58):

Heyas,

Trying to get my engines timed. I haven't
got a hit yet. Just wondering if my
timing mark is screwed up. The hole
in the pulley (which I assume is the
timing mark) lines up just after
outward pressure is felt. Seems like the spark
should go just after the pressure goes
away instead.

Another problem, I have just a straight
distributor setup and two magnetos. I
get good sparks with the distributor setup
but the magnetos don't do anything. I am
thinking I am not installing the magneto
correctly. The service manual says that after
you install it, you have to let it go around
once. Then loosen it and let the impulse
coupler trip. I tried to do this but nothing
happens. Is there like a switch or something?

I assume something has to be done, since the rotor like jumps around instead of a smooth
circular motion. Of course, I don't get
any spark with the magneto setup at this
point.

I don't know, any thoughts on timing would
be helpful.

-Greg
