I sure would love to have some of that jerky 😊. Hey if you have that dimple in your flywheel, it may be useful. You have the TDC tool to verify if the dimple is in the right spot. It’s possible somebody put different wheels in the motor over the past 63 years. it may or may not get frustrating but I’m sure it will all make sense to you once you’re messing around with the timer. Interesting that the book says do the final test with the points cover on. So much in life depends on timing, doesn’t it. Happy Thanksgiving!
I actually just caught (and read manual) your comment about testing with cover on and spring retainer in place. Good to know!! I noticed the front cylinder contact points are angled and not opening evenly. I think I read that you can bend the contact to get it to open evenly against the stationary contact. Have you had to do this?
@ yes it’s important that the point contacts hit hit squarely. It is not uncommon to have to bend the points arm with needle nose pliers. Condensers are important and I’ve been hearing a lot of bad things about poor quality condensers lately. I guess it’s just hit or miss with quality these days.
@@SilverNutsGarage-di5ls always happy to assist. I just looked at my NOS timer with the cap and the and original wires. The points hit perfectly square and true, they are beautifully made with a Delco Remy inscribed on the arm, and Delco made in USA inscribed on the bottom plate of the points. I long for the days when made in USA was the standard of quality and the parts were readably attainable. What a shame we lost our manufacturing, sold out for corporate profits. I used to buy my parts from Joe Barber at the 74 Shop. His son kind of keeps the business running now, but Joe was an incredible wealth of knowledge about Panheads. Anything I needed to know he was there with an answer and I’m happy to pass along any knowledge I can..
