Engine Cam Timing Help
By: Tiny Tim Date: May 18, 2022, 5:57 pm
---------------------------------------------------------
So I pulled the right side cover to replace the broken neutral
spring . I accidentally pulled the cam out with it and dont see
timing marks to put it right again. I have a manual that in
Italian. Not much help at all. Can anyone give me the
procedure??

answer anyway..

I did get it sorted out. I thought about the cam timing and from
riding It knew the cam wasn't timed correctly. I did however
find the specification on the degrees in which the vales open. I
was able to put a dial gauge on the intake rocker arm and could
note when it started to open. I put a degree wheel on the
flywheel and set the piston at TDC and zeroed the degree wheel
at that point with a simple paint mark on the engine case.
Having zero I moved the piston until the valve started to open
and found the cam was one tooth off. I reset the cam and its
running great again. It just took a couple nights thinking about
it and after I using the degree wheel it was fixed quickly.
Thanks for your consideration! By the way I marked the cam this
time so it won't happen again
