I searched this forum but can't find anything at least by looking at post titles.
My 50' 3100 hadn't run for years before I recently bought it. I've been working on it and just installed a new distributer. I have the flywheel timing mark at the pointer on TDC. To me it looks like the timing gears are a tooth maybe two off. Looking thru the service manual it only talks about aligning the flywheel to the pointer or to check timing with a timing light, nothing about adjusting the cam a tooth or two. I do not see anything about removing the timing gear and slightly moving it. How do I adjust timing slightly.. Right now the slot where the bolt goes thru to hold down the octane marker is right against the bolt and really needs to go a little bit more according to a static time procedure..
Am I missing meaning?
