removed distributor but forgot to mark the position of rotor
high school girls can get a little excited. of course, there were 9,000 ****ed
off girls left over. :-) 10,000 high school boys (and 1,000 high school girls) did it over last weekend. Must have been one hell of an orgy. Sorry, couldn't resist. LOL "JAXAshby" wrote in message ... dean, go pay some guy $95 an hour for four hours for what a sixteen year old kid could do in twenty minutes. installing a distributor is EEEE fickin ZEE. 10,000 high school boys (and 1,000 high school girls) did it over last weekend. remove the plug from cyl #1 (or any cyl), put your thumb over the hole, turn over the engine until you feel compression coming up, then some more, then use a small screwdriver stuck down the hole and turn the engine over very slowly until the piston has stopped moving up. What shade tree do you work under? The screwdriver bit went out with Briggs and Stratons 3.5 horse motors. Take cap off distributor, noting which plug wire the rotor is pointing at, insert distributor in hole and tighten hold bolt enough to kept the distributor from slopping around. The spark wire the rotor is pointing is the wire you run to cyl #1. then run the rest of the plug wires to the prop plugs in the proper order. If the distributor is out of the motor you'd think that maybe, I said just maybe that the distributor shaft would have been moved somewhere in the process. You engine will start (assuming all else is okay), and then time the engine. Then go boating and enjoy. Then following these directions you haul the boat down to a tech that really knows what he's doing and ignore any post from this asshole JAXAshby. After following the post made by JAX for the last several months, I quickly came to realize that you'd have to be a fool to listen to anything this guy has to say. While he claims to know just about everything, you should read some of his post in the other groups where he asks questions that a first year high school shop class student could answer. Dean |
