It goes up and down just fine and can lift any implement. You cannot adjust the operating height of the implement with the touch controls. It will move to various positions but is will nearly always return to the up or down position. It acts like its stuck in draft control ... (yes the lever is in position control). second question is where are the timing marks on the flywheel? i've hand rotated the engine a half a dozen times and cannot find one mark on the flywheel. thanks Paul [Reply]   [No Email]

MAY need to build up cam. should be not bad repair as it usually wears in profile so leaves a witness mark... [Reply]  [No Email]

The timing marks can be difficult to find if not marked. Rotate the engine to TDC (#1 cylinder) on the compression stroke and look through the timing mark inspection port with a flashlight for the marks. It may be necessary to clean the flywheel with a small paint brush and gasoline to find the marks. Once found, mark 4 degrees BTDC mark with white paint. Dean [Reply]  [No Email]
