Default Re: Question on Cam Gear Marks - UPDATE

I confirmed the TDC marks with the hard stop method, it was on. I was very carefull when I did it with the dial indicator before, going back and forth. Within a degree at least. I have no feel for how much dwell resides at TDC, but would expect that to depend on bearing wear.
Photo shows where it idles, about 25*.

Terry, I havent confirmed the drivers side points are closing all the way yet. Kinda hard getting in there, and I have to drain the radiator and pull it to do anything on my stand. I'd like it if your right about that. I have a Sun machine, and I took a quick look at it before using the distributor but I did not check the dwell, just the point gap and alignment.
