  • did a cold start on this engine and hillbilly holler commented about the valve clearance and timing so I went back and checked it.

    Yes! You set vales like I said one open set closed valve then do it for the other valve.
    It don't have to be perfect!
    Just set them in a neutral spot.
    One valve fully open and you won't miss the compression release spot on the cam.
    It's simple it's not rocket science it's a small engine.

      Appreciate it hillbilly. I gotta research that crank gear now. It has three different timing marks. Guess I could pull the head off and try each mark by rotation.

    rhe camshaft pressure first by turn it to deadcenter top and cover much easier off.. just for the comment

    That being a 5 hp you can install a 3hp Briggs flywheel and make a bracket for the 3 hp coil to make it spool faster to get to speed and less rotational mass so less of a parasitic draw on hp and torque so you get to top end faster with like 2 pounds less pull on the engine.
    This is why most racers run a Briggs so they can do this.
    Ugh I swear I wish I can build you an engine!

      Yeah I know what your talking about. I've have one a those brackets somewheres and also have a 3hp on my shelf out back.
