<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Greetings</span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman","serif""> </span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Perhaps someone has come across this before.</span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman","serif""> </span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">About to start the engine in the BN3 after a complete rebuild. The engine is a very early C-series six-cylinder and the rebuild included new bearings throughout, pistons,
sleeves, valves, vernier adjustable timing chain etc.</span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman","serif""> </span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">When setting the timing all the settings were done by the book. Tappets at 12 thou, the pointer on the timing chain cover is pointing to the notch in the harmonic balancer,
the gear shaft drive from the oil pump/camshaft is at 20 to 2 and the offset distributor drive is correct. Number 1 piston is top dead centre and the rocker gear is rocking.</span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman","serif""> </span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Imaging please looking down at the open distributor and it’s a clock face. According to the book, the rotor button arm should be at 2 o’clock or firing No 1 spark plug.</span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman","serif""> </span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">However the rotor button is a 10 o’clock.</span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman","serif""> </span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">So it’s not 180 degrees out, but 120 degrees.</span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman","serif""> </span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Of course you could get around it by changing the spark plug leads, but the result looks untidy. An alternative is to rotate the geared shaft drive clockwise by 120
degrees.</span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman","serif""> </span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Any suggestions?</span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman","serif""> </span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Thanks</span></p>
