Picked up a pair of these and I'm wondering if timing them is the same as I do with a Tecumseh with the dial indicator and such. The Clinton manual mentions marking the flywheel against the block at TDC and turning the flywheel and marking again and so forth. I'd rather just use the dial indicator.
