Great video. How’d you Mount your dial indicator? Seems like a great way to do it. I was about to try with wooden dowels but this seems much more accurate
The question I have is you mentioned "that one doesn't count." Why doesn't it count if the piston is all the way up.? I think I might have put my timing on that one. I rebuildt the engine and put it in and obviously doesn't turn on
It has to be on the compression stroke. Remember on a 4 stroke the piston will reach tdc 2x for each explosion. You can plug the hole a bit until you feel it pushing air out. That's the compression stroke for timing the cams.

I don't remember. Maybe there was something magnetic or maybe i just set it on something.

Where are you located?
I'm curious on how the cam chain goes on exactly. I was told there is a certain way the chain goes on
Not sure but it seems like it can only go one way
Like what was even the point of that?
Like why did you even watch it? If you need to time the cams on the mr1 it might help. Otherwise it doesn't apply.
