At the timing position the horizontal cylinder is at TDC at the start of the firing stroke and the vertical cylinder is halfway down the inlet...
That makes sense. Thanks for that Pete.
The frame is off to the powder coaters. I have re-juvenated the instruments and dash. I have the heads off and after cleaning them up and giving...
The fuel pump relay will not affect the dash, idiot lights nor headlight. It's failure will stop the fuel pump, coils and injection but nothing...

Got the alloy adjuster blocks out of the swinging arm. No heat needed. After soaking in WD40 since Monday I was able to draw them out using the...
