Bradford Enclosed Crank
Working on first stationary engine, a Bradford enclosed crank unit that had been outside for a couple of years. Lots of rust in carb and head and everything nicely siezed. Have cleaned and am soaking bits but thought I'd check on reassembly timing.
It's an EK magneto with no advance/retard lever so am assuming timing will be TDC at end of compression stroke. Is that right?
Cheers!

HI
The Ignition point is three and a half inches to the right of the TDC mark, or 22.5 degrees BTD.
I have a couple of .PDF's, one on igniting timing and one on setting up the Wico EK but I can't remember how to attach them in a PM to you, maybe Paul will be along to remind me.

Sadly we cannot have attachments in PM without paying for the Premier package of the forum. You need to ask for the recipients email address via PM, then send files from your personal email account.
An alternative would be to put your files on Google Drive or some such and post the link. Personally, I would touch free cloud storage providers with someone else's bargepole.
