i got the fan cover off and valve cover off now i'm looking at the timing mark.. my questions,,, the manual says align mark in engine case to t mark. i have three staight lines, the letter f and the letter t. is the letter t , the t mark? and the lobes should point down. thats the pointy end of the lobe, correct? one more,,, and i will have to turn to the t mark for each valve corret?

here you go

pud

yes the valve lobes should be pointing down .if you line up the casting line and the t line on the fly wheel you should be able to do both valves.I pmd you

i got it all lined up, both ways,,,,, but one lobes is pointing down, while the other up, can i do one and then line it up again and do the other?

both lobes need to be pointing down

thanks all, got em done. fired up ran for a few minutes and died. but at least this time i can push the gas and it goes. before it just died. i have to weld the exhust pipe before i can run her and then be able to check the autochoke,do the valves again, and possibly adjust float.----------thanks again--john
