Connect timing light to right (left)
cylinder spark plug lead wire. Ignition
timing of right cylinder must be set first.
Start the engine and keep the engine
speed as specified on the label. Use a
tachometer for checking.
The rotor pointer should line up the âFâ
stamped timing mark on the
stator
at
a specified engine speed. If it does not
align, loosen the two breaker backing
plate screws (breaker assembly holding
screws for left cylinder) and move the
complete backing plate (breaker assem-
bly for left cylinder) until the point
marks align.
