Like to see a whole pic of the cam showing all the teeth if u could looking down

Right, the hole in the cam gear you are aligning with is NOT the timing mark.

I was wondering if anybody would catch on to why I wanted another pic. :thumbsup:

I didn't "catch on", I saw it was wrong then saw your post.

Didn't want to jump ahead with seeing the pic first. Glad to see someone else saw that to.

Well this guy started a similar thread on this engine 6 months ago and at least 2 people here know that. He left that one hanging too. He says he is experienced with small engines but is aligning with something that anyone with any experience would know was not a timing mark. He was told on the other thread what to look for as a timing mark. What does anyone make of that?
