While trying to help a friend time the 1275 engine in his recently acquired
Bugeye, we could not see or feel any indication on the pulley indicating the
TDC notch. We looked and felt around the entire circumference of the
pulley.
Does anyone have any suggestions what may have happened and how to correct
this?
Also, one of the HS2 carbs' piston needle binds up after centering the jet
and tightening the nut. Loosening the nut allows the piston to fall with
the "clunk" sound. However, even with the nut lose the needle seems to be
sticking as upon acceleration of the engine, this piston does not raise
nearly as quickly as the other carb piston. I assume that the needle is
bent and we should replace both the needles and jets in each carb.
Thanks.
Ron
