This spark advancer unit I have and how it is installed.

It took a few goes, but in the end i managed to get the timing correct with a 0.3mm airgap. But I have no idea why?

Tbh we've all had that experience I suspect.

My last similar issue was when the primary gear shaft would not fit into the second  bearing on the 400. For no discernible reason after 20 mins & a coffee break it just laughed at me and fitted.

Hello all,

Engine rebuild is going but slowly. Unfortunately, house reno items are higher priority in the missus list of things to do.

Quick one for this week, as I can't find the assembly.

Which way does the neutral switch go on the shaft? Is this right way around?

Sesman:
Yes, The contact switch is normally at about 8 o'clock in neutral.

There should be a peg on the back that locates in a slot in the end of the drum, i have some nos if its broken
