The topic of timing calibration came up in Illf8ed's thread on jet sizes. I would like to see more on this topic, but had already attempted to hi-jack that thread with a different off topic question. I read some directions given by Norbsa in an old thread on calibration and looked at timing wheels to see what is available out there. Then of course I started wondering about how to attach a wheel to the end of the crank and see that the thread there appears to be 5/8 X 20 tpi. What the heck is that? I can't find it on any thread chart.
I also see that most of the wheels are solid discs but the Wassell tool has cut outs in it. I pressume this is to allow the user to see the rotor, but would like to know what others have found useful.
Here is the old thread:
timing-wheel-tool-use-t1258.html?hilit=calibrate timing
Any tips or information will be much appreciated.
