Ok folks been strugglin to get my 1950 Super A started. Here's the deal, unable to locate timing marks. Read the spot where they are supposed to be but unable to find. (Cleaned & cleaned) Please give me options to try with out finding this mark.Here's what I've done....pulled out the plug of #1 cylinder and watched to see piston come to top, figuring that would be top of compression stroke. Then taking and making sure rotor is pointing to #1 cylinder on cap tried to spin it over. Not getting anything.
I pulled the mag last night and I know I have spark from mag. I did notice that I can put mag on with cylinder at top of stroke just prior to it clicking and it is still pointing to #1 cylinder. Am I in the ballpark? Please help but talk basic stuff.... I have had to mag out good spark....new plugs, new condenser...just not getting her to fire....badly want this to run soon...
