By checking the valve clearance before
removing the Winkle Cap, and then
measuring the th ickness, you can
replace it with the proper cap. The
Winkle Caps come in sizes from 2mm to
3.1mm.
The next step is to clean and regap the
ignition points. A piece of 180 grit
flexstone, available from an auto parts
store, will work to polish them up. If
badly pined, tlley should be replaced.
The degree wheel adaptor must be
installed cin the left hand side, under the
large hex plug. The end of the
crankshaft is threaded to accept ao 8'
mm bolt. If this plug is tight, a linle
leverage applied to the tool will help.
With the degree wheel in position, find
top dead center by engaging top gear
and rotating the rear wheel, using a ruler
or small screwdriver in the plug hole.
Keep 'in mind that this TOC must be on
the compression stroke..
.
With piston at TOC and the pointer at
'0', you are now ready to time the
ignition. By using the rear wheel with
top gear engaged, the engine can be
rotated to check timing. Remember to
back up the engine beyond the correct
timing and then come up to it. This
takes out all the backlash of the gears
for correct timing.
Install a wire pointer and position the
'0' on the degree wheel in line with it
and 'lock down the wheel. Now go back
and check for Top Dead Center again
and check the pointer to see that
nothing was disturbed.
Check your manual to see if the timing
is given for 'retard' or 'fully advanced'
position. If 'fully advanced', you will
have to lock the advance mechanism
open with a sma II washer to get the
correct timing.
Using a 'Buzz Box' as shown, or some
other system of showing when the
contacts open, set the timing according
to the specs for your particular model.
A continuity light or an ohmmeter can
be used for timing with assurance of
being correct. After the timing has been
set, it is a good idea to double check it
to be on the safe side.
