Zer, How can one tell if the distributor is off a tooth or so? And, how does one correct such a problem? Still having problems with my starboard cylinder on my Ambo. less problems but still enough to keep me asking questions.

Pretty much. The pully is in two peices. When I first put the Ambo back together I was at least one hole off. bike ran like shit and I couldn't
get
the points to behave. Once I solved the timing marks then I could install the distributor in the right spot.
come to think of it..if you have timing issues...the distributor may be
off
a tooth or so.

So, let's see if I've got that correct. Remove, three bolts, give front of pulley a tug? with something suitable and off it comes? Belt and associated washers will come off. Fiddle with washers line up front of pulley and screw in bolts in same holes. Let's assume for a moment (I have been having trouble since I bought the bike with smooth running at the appointed timing marks) Let's assume po fucked up. Put left cylinder at TDC on compression stroke (when intake valve closes) fart with pulley to get the TDC mark on rear pulley lined up (first mark
on
left) without moving engine, put pulley on and tighten screws without moving anything else. Time the bike. Yes? At 05:23 PM 7/31/01 -0400, you wrote:

That would be the right answer Z. Just remove the 3 small bolts and
adjust
the washers for correct tension. Just be careful about not removing the
rear
part of the pulley and screwing up the location of your timing marks.

Probably already answered....
Yes.
To be more clear... the BAN (big assed nut) does not need to come off to swap washers in
and
out
to adjust belt tension. Just the 3 small bolts. The only time the BAN
needs
to come off is to remove the flange that the pully is bolted to. No necessary unless you want to remove the timing gear cover.
After my years with BMW manuals I find the Eldo shop manual a bit
sparse
in
places. I'd like to know if I can pull the front of the pulley and generator
belt
to adjust washers and stuff without removing tank, loossening
generator
and
taking the belt off that way first. Can someone walk me through the steps please. I assume loosening the crank nut involves having the bike in first
gear,
someone' s foot on the brake and a fairly healthy sized extension to a breaker
bar.
Can I then just remove the three nuts on the pulley and use a puller
to
get
it off. Can I replace the pulley in reverse with it still being on the
generator
pulley. Thanks folks. Derek Hamlet
