400 Advance Unit
« on: August 25, 2023, 04:22:57 PM »
Hopefully an easy reply to this one - what is the orientation of the cam sleeve relative to the timing marks. There is a line on the edge of the cam but I forgot to make  note of which way round it went.
(oh, and if anyone has just the backplate going spare (part with the marks on) - I'll buy it!)

Thanks , I haven't had time to look at the bike - I was going to work out the cam position relating to when the points opened etc but you saved me the effort!
