stator help

[thehillsiderider]

So like a dumbass i forgot to mark or even look at the position the stator was at when i tore the engine down. I dont think it had any timing advance on it to begin with but not sure. Whats the easiest way to get it back to the right timing setting without having to buy a timing adjuster or is it jus worth it to buy the adjuster and advance it. The manual isnt very helpfull. thanks

I don't understand what you're asking. But if you have a stock mounting plate, just bolt it on. The bolt holes set it at 0*.

but on the stator the mounting holes are more like slots and it has room for adjustment. dont know if someone before me did that or thats stock. I jus didnt think it was jus a bolt on thing.

I don't think it matters where the stator sits on the plate. It's the pick up on the plate that controls the timing. If you have the stock timing plate and the mounting holes are slotted on that, I think you can only get about 3* or 4* out of it max.

So i can jus bolt it back up in whatever postion it sits in and not have to worry about what the timing is at? Not worried about if it does advance it at all i jus dont want to retard it.

turning the plate clockwise to the end of the slot advances it an turning it counter clockwise retards it.
