Okay, I'm trying to get everything sorted out on my Bugeye. The 1275 engine I recently rebuilt still smokes some (blue smoke), but really only when first starting up cold and after idling for a perio

Thanks for the reply. If the harmonic balancer has slipped, why would everything line up statically? As I mentioned, the TDC mark is right on the TDC pointer when the #1 piston is at TDC and the valv

Kurtis, Sometimes the dots on the timing gears are not in the correct (original) place on the new gears. Especially if they are not original parts. I've had gears that when the dots are lined up the

For some reason, I've also seen dampers where the timing mark is completely different in relation to the key slot to others. So, the damper mark may be incorrect. I always make sure I know where TDC

I actually reused the gears... and they were lined up originally (prior to the rebuild). Kurtis -- Original Message -- From: "K. Valentine" <kevin@valentinephoto.net> To: "Kurtis Jones" <tr4driver@gm

I'm pretty sure my TDC mark is correct. I remember spending a lot of time worrying about this when putting things back together (and checking it). Kurtis -- Original Message -- From: "Wm. Severin Tho

Dizzy drive in a tooth off? Normal ign timing if all is correct will have the vac advance pointing at about one o clock. If the drive is off, the vac advance will be pointing at 11:00, 2:00 or who kn

Okay... I've pretty much resigned myself to the fact that the drive dog is off a tooth. But I still don't understand how this could produce the results I'm experiencing??? How in the world can the di

Hi Kurtis The spark has to fire when the rotor is at the correct spark post. So you simply might be rotating it enough to get it to do that. Did ya notice that the drive gear has 9 teeth? This is not
