Static timing is better than nothing when a strobe-type timing light isn't available. The computer has complete control of timing. On a 2g engine there is no need/no way to set timing due to the ecu seeing both a cam angle sensor and crank angle sensor. Since a 1g does not incorporate a crank sensor you have to manually set base ignition timing. At which time the F mark (not T mark) on the advancer (visible through the inspection window) is supposed to align with the permanent case mark. Yes you need to set your timing to 5btdc. The objective is to have the bulb or ohmmeter indicate (while hand-turning the crankshaft) when the signal wire from coil primary becomes ungrounded. igniter was introduced on 1979 model KZ1000.ĭyna-S installation instructions include static timing (without engine running) by using a test bulb wired to light just as the signal wire from coil primary becomes ungrounded.Īm thinking an ohmmeter could be used in lieu of the bulb to indicate continuity or lack of continuity. Check to see if there’s someplace local that has a tester for it.Is there a way to check my timing (electronic ignition)with a multimeter?įrom signature, z1 1015 in a 78 kz1000 frame, guessing Dyna-S replaced points, as Kaw's electronic ignition with i.c. Even though it passed a visual, if it had a lot of miles it may be worn enough to jump just a bit. I’m assuming this is a problem in the ignition system somewhere, but I’m kind of lost on where to go from here.Īs the timing gears/chain are new, I’d test the old distributor. Everything else in ignition system is the old parts too.Įverything else seems to be functioning well. (teeth looked ok, and there’s no play where there’s not supposed to be). Used old distributor, but it passed the visual inspection. New cap, rotor, spark plugs, and spark wires. I cleaned fuel injectors before installing. It’s a brand new timing light… Not the nicest one… $30 from harbor freight. Supposed to be 10 degrees btdc, I can get it fairly close, but it’s fluctuating back and forth 2-3 degrees. When I put the timing light to it to fine tune it, it is jumping around a little. Just had engine rebuilt and did the run in. As far as the timing gear goes… I had machine shop rebuild engine for me and they set the timing chain up (and were supposed to set timing). The only question I didn’t understand is about timing gear marks at 6-12 o’clock… U mean the actual timing gear where timing chain is? Or on the harmonic balancer? (on the balancer I lined it up to 10 degrees btdc when I found compression stroke). I’ve tried asking around, can’t find anyone to borrow another timing light from.
Distributor locked down (had it just loose enough to turn it at first but checked again after tightening and getting same result). Spout connector is unplugged while setting timing.
Then I would leave it.unless an issue occurs. Timing light? If it looks like its jumping and the truck runs right Line up to #1 on the distributor? If your doing the procedureĬorrect and all the above is correct.can you barrow a different When the marks line up and the engine is at tdc. When your checking the timing and its jumping.is the spoutĬonnector in or out? timing gear marks are 6-12 o’clock?
