[QUOTE="Gamefisherjon, post: 432997, member: 15514"] I got this motor for free from a good friend this motor sat 3 years outside but turns over fine. I cleaned all bug nests from the airbox and intake verified compression (75 lbs top 72 bottom) inspected the pistons from the exhaust port and pulled the head and looked some more all checked out good the spark will jump a 3/8 open air gap i think the timing is out or something (flywheel key is good) My question is how do i set the timing on this motor, and could the cdi trigger be bad and set the timing out?
