Honda vf750f valve timing
|
hi i have bought a non running 1983 vf750f and after some hours of
swearing and kicking the thing i cant get it to run i after cleaning
and setting the carbs up and then checking the ignition timing i have
found that the previous owner must have had the heads of at some point
because the valve timing is wrong. i set the cams on the rear cylinder
to line up with all the timing marks but the front cylinder timing
marks seem to be wrong the valves hit the piston if you linr the marks
up. i was told that the marks on the front cylinder cams are wrong and
that you are supposed to mark the cams before you take them off
unfortunatly the previous knit wit didnt put the cams to the corect
timing and he did not mark them. so can anyone tell me what the timing
should be for the front cylinders.

Please don't tell me that you're doing this work without a service
manual; really, even if you don't have one, I don't want to hear about
it. In any case, you should head over to:
