Thanks Guy's for your help. She runs fine now!

I took Jim Beckers advice and opend the govenor. I found the impulse drive gear to be 191 degrees off timing. Then found out that many of these older tractors had clutch housing that were upside down or got that way after a rebuild, and I have one of them. With the 1 cylender in TDC the timong mark points up and not down on the bell housing. So with the correct TDC and, pulling the impulse gear out, rotating it back to the timing marks on the secondary gear, all put her in good alignment. I buttoned her up and she ran first time purring like a kitten.
Thanks again for your input.

You cant put the clutch housing upside down no way it will fit someone is sure blowing a lot of smoke on that deal. I told you line up the dots cause thats the only way the mag can get out of time.

If I remember , you are working on a c-113 engine. When the marks on the crank and cam gears line up it is firing on #4 and not on #1.

Hi Yes thanks for telling us the outcome. We could do with that a little more often. Do the point about the timing lining up on #4 also hold good for the 'supers' MTF
