Re: Johnson Seahorse TN28 Timing off?

[mikele86]

quote Jeff Register:

How about the points cam? Can it be flipped & out of time? Check those new coils as the soldered connection for the high voltage wires or does the 28 take the universal coil?

Got new plugs J6C Champions. Set the timing right to gap at .02 when piston is at the top on each cylinder… still nothing. Can’t even get the engine to cough after spraying fluid into both cylinders. It seems to me I’m not getting spark when put back into the cylinder. 😥

Is it possible for the cam to be flipped? I did replace the piston rings, is it possible I could of installed the pistons backwards somehow?

This is starting to drive me nuts 😐
