It's virtually impossible to remove the magnet with the key and the key be any good. When installing a new key, my I suggest super glue on the key. This will keep the key in place and easier to install the magnet.well I thought that it's impossible but it's out of time for sure.Maybe when I installed the cen clutch and had the rope in the spark plug hole to tighten the clutch.That's the only way, that I think did it.I'm going to replace the magnet because I was going to see if key was aligned and took it off and I kinda buggered the magnet so I'm just wondering if that may help.I just want too make sure.I think it kinda moved a little because the key and the magnet came out together and it was hard to get off.Is there any certain way to putting it back on?
Venice, you make me laugh. After all the engines you've been into, you still have to mark the magnet?It's also possible to install the magnet backwards. I always make sure to mark the outside of the magnet before taking it off.
Obviously the rotor was installed correctly, but I can't figure out how it could be out of time without the key being stripped.So just out of curiosity, how did taking the rotor off and putting it back on in the same position change anything?
I thought about buying one of them...I have a MM adjustable rotor. Mine is advanced about the width of the keyway, and runs better.
I have one. I think it's worth it. My motor was a little lazy accelerating, compared to other motors just like it. After advancing the timing about the width of the key, it feels like I expected.Hey guys,
I'd really like to hear about that MM adjustable rotor... sounds like a valuable improvement.
Who is running one of those?
Do you like it a lot?
Did it make a significant improvement in your performance?
Tnx

I played around with it a little bit. Slightly retarded was suck. Slightly advanced was a little better than the stock position.I have one. I think it's worth it. My motor was a little lazy accelerating, compared to other motors just like it. After advancing the timing about the width of the key, it feels like I expected.
I think you could do the same thing with the stock rotor, especially for expermentation. Just remove the rotor, and take out the key. Then when you bolt the rotor back down use a star washer to lock it in place.
