Timing marks are located on the flywheel. These marks align with a notch in a timing hole which is located in the left side of the flywheel housing. Marks on the flywheel are:
  - "OT" for top dead center
  - "S" for static timing
  - "F" for advanced timing
Advanced timing is checked with the motor running at 3000RPM. Adjustment is accomplished by moving the entire breaker plate assembly after loosening two screws and sliding the assembly along elongated holes.
