[QUOTE="pdee4t, post: 161088, member: 1594"] yeah its about 15 degree's off. it should be timed right because i followed the manual and double checked it. cam alignment marks are both set horizontal to the head with piston at full TDC, plus the crank lock bolt goes into the groove on the crank when at that position. im just thinking, could it be the cam lobes? i set the cam timing with the alignment marks both horizontal to the head but with the lobes both facing down, that's how i was told and thought you were meant to do it. it doesn't make sense though because when i turn the flywheel backwards and put it in the TDC position, the feeler gauge goes under but only when i turn it backwards from the "slightly off" position. that's the confusing part.
