[kskjofire]

Hey friends W? is the pick-up gap measurement when you put back the timing plate and how you do it?

Set it between .015 and .018.

Check both pickup points on the flywheel...

Not more than .020...

I like to set it as close as possible without actually hitting the pickup...

 

Did you properly line up the timing marks with the case half/split point?

Did you get a new stator, too...or just the plate?

All the wires hooked up properly?

Thanks for helping me, i just got the plate from Jeff(F.A.S.T). is not that bad is start w/more kicks, but i think i got to fix the gap and im going to set at .015 or .018. how i do that push the pickup foward?

Loosen the two small phillips screws.

Get a feeler gauge...or a matchbox cover if you don't have gauges.

 

Place it inbetween the pickup itself and one of the "nubs" on the flywheel. Press the pickup against the feeler gauge, against the nub, tighten it down.

 

Check the clearance between the BOTH nubs and the pickup...
