Dick- good thought but too easy.
I used Vizard's manual when doing my top end and in chapter 24, he refers to
rotating the sprocket 90 degrees a couple of times. His remedy for a crank
error of 4.3 degrees is to "...turn the sprocket back to front...". When I
was doing the work, I tried this and found what the other listers have
found. It won't work.
