MMM engines will run with the valve timing mis-set over quite a range, but they will only run #properly# if it's dead right. If the cam timing is out, this could cau; /html/mg-mmm/2002-04/msg00007.html (8,424 bytes)

I've set the timing to 20deg BTDC, but I believe it may have been set back to TDC in an attempt to solve another problem (valve; /html/mg-mmm/2002-04/msg00009.html (9,181 bytes)
