Btdc

Re: Puch E50 timing

Here comes the piston & Boom.

Compression that shit and squeeze it into the smallest fucking area.

Re: Puch E50 timing

You want to have the flywheel set to where your points are at their most open when you set the point gap, which is a little past TDC.

excuse me BTDC

are you correcting me or is that where you should set them?

I guess what ever that means is suppose to be funny or what ever.

It does not make any sense to me?

Re: Puch E50 timing

You set the points with the piston at just past TDC...

Both. If you're settling timing which is where your points are supposed to fire at you set them to begin to open at BTDC. If you're setting the points gap you set them at TDC or . Read the write up Ken posted and you'll understand.

Re: Puch E50 timing

Set gap at TDC. Timing is set BTDC

Re: Puch E50 timing

Robert Parr /

so you set the point gap at TDC and then measure over as Ken suggest 17mm and make a mark on the fly wheel then when the 17mm mark lines up with the TDC mark your points should just start to open which is referred to as your firing mark...correct?
