It's debatable whether there are any gains to be had by advancing spark timing on a stock stationary engine, but here's how to do it. Instagram: @instamadcvnt
Can't the flywheel be tightened down with honing extra smooth of upper crankshaft and lock washer added, and used at different timing spot, by not using flywheel key? I heard others are doing this. Cars have adjustable distributor for changing timing. Large nut on flywheel tightened very hard. Briggs is pre-set at TDC.
Lock washers aren't used with the flywheel nut. The engine spines in a direction that's always tightening the nuts. It's the same reason lock washers aren't used with the lug nuts on your car. washers
Im haveing issues with my predator, i got flat piston rod 330 cam rockers jetted carb with an light flywheel 32degrees. It turns on runs but right before it hits top speed it bogs. I switch to stock flywheel it runs good but issue with stock flywheel at top rpm it throws the magnet off broke my first block were coil sits. Any idea how to solve my issue?
Uhh what if I told you that one of my go cart does not have a fly wheel, it's literally just the crankshaft with a cintrifigal clutch and then a chain to the wheels, the engine Is a honda sohc 2 valve single cylinder from a pressure washer
Actually you’re right there’s a saying,Time for torque jet for horsepower but that only has to do with the fact that you’re dealing with one piston as opposed to 2,4,6,8 etc. cylinder engines
