1986-88 power valve timing

(1/1)

jyeomans:
Just wondering if anyone could offer a more detailed set of instructions for timing the 1986-88 kips valves than what the the clymer manual offers. The manual I have is very vague, and I am unable to get the timing correct.
thanks

if your valve are worn the timing marks may be worn
line the timing marks on the valves with the timing rod marks with the allen key stop bolt {flywheel side} removed
since both valve are the same one valve will look incorrect {upsidedown}
