You will recall that I was turning over th engine with a huge 1 5/16” box wrench in order to counteract turning over the engine backwards. It’s very tedious.
Today, I was able to rig up a huge 1 5/16” socket and a short extension which allowed that setup to rest on the bottom of the engine fan housing. As a result, I was able to use a relatively small plumbing wrench to grabe the outside of the socket and easily turn it.
I problably made five or six complete revolutions of the engine The camshafts are not turning because the chains drign the sockets are not moving. Looking in the area above the front chain, I can see that the top of the lower chain, the long one, is moving with each turn. But that movement is not being transmitted to the camshafts which drive the sprocket. One sprocket has two setscrews in tight and the other has one setscrew in tight. I was attempting to rotate the sprocket in order to put in the remaining setscrew.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
