Hello everyone, thank you for following the topics I opened before. I had a poor idle problem that I couldn't fix.

As the last step, I decided to remove the cylinder head gasket.


The cover gasket is in good condition.
The valves are slightly brown and discolored. While this is being dismantled, a heat resistant valve will be installed.

I have questions about timing. How many degrees should the flywheel be when the crank and cam are in correct timing?

I think these 3 variables are not in exactly the right position. Maybe that was my problem.

Especially the flywheel looked 6 degrees.

The front edge is correct the rear edge may be slightly further out.

The bracket that holds the dipstick goes on outside of cover , loosen rear cover bolt gently push cover to reduce gap and tighten bolt
