Hope OK to hi jack in comments a bit? The Aircraft Spruce Magneto timing box measures inductance very accurate.The MM will measure voltage by the needle swing (or digital) and buzzes if you have that feature. Using MM for continuity check on points will not work on Y80. I tried my Sperry brand digital... -
Presently my Y80 is buttoned up and ignition set so opening up for pictures would not be now. Since I am very familiar with Y80 ignition and other parts of it I can do you well via tele. I have helped several who never did it via tele to rebuild power heads, set timing and other. Before tackling the... -
The operative word is Good! Also who owned it and what was done to it and what is needing done? -
Appreciate that -
Kindly taken but so what age in profile but no affect on know how. No need to set timing as often as you note but once set easy to quick check with buzz box and dial indicator Without pulling rope plate and point cover to get at points.
Check the stock inspection manual (link) for pistons... -

Grew up with a mechanic dad and setting points was taught like riding a bike. On the Y80 setting the points with a buzz box and a dial indicator is very easy with patience to get them in sync with the same BTDC piston position, once you know how!. That said since I own a CD Merc 25ss I prefer the CD...Leave a comment:

I have also came across that about alky engines to prevent lock up they need to be run for a short time on regular oil and gas to flush out the caster oil that if left in will gum up. -
For long periods of no use I always fog oil the cylinders, remove plugs spray in and rope over a number of times. To rope over with out plugs grounded I cross short the safety kill wires, coils like to go to ground plugs out they do not. Just a habit from the CD 25ss engine that I do that with to protect...Leave a comment:

Post some sketches of the tape design and let's see what you came up with, suggestions might be helpful. -
What is the design for the colors? Have you clear coated the bottom and sides or will that be done after the colors?Leave a comment:

Go for the Therapy. Therapy will work but you need to be consistent. When I went thru it I was at the Therapy office 3 x a week for an hour each time and doing the arm exercises the other days of the week. They make you go thru a special set of exercises to properly work the shoulder. It took me 3...Leave a comment:

Correct, as we age life becomes a patch job. As we age the brain thinks OK and the body feels not OK. Stop skate boarding and falling off ladders, ;-) What do do is 1) bear the pain and it will get worse, 2) have it fixed and take it easy with the shoulder.
My case:
I have had 2 right...Leave a comment:
