i have a 79 110 and i recently rebuilt the motor. when i put the cam back in it started up finethen i jumped 180 deg so i put it back on time started fine. kreemed the tank so i can ride with out leaky gas started ran funny so did some carb adjustment died wouldnt start 180 deg off again!!! so i put it back on time pulled it over wouldnt start check timing again 180 deg off. what would my prob be? bad chain? am i putting the cam in wrong? i put it in lobes down and then spin it up to line the holes up. is the gear in backwards? any help would make me happy

are you sure the cam jumped time?? or did the advancer on the cam jump time -
i had this problem with my 200x-- pissed me off too- the bolt that holds it on needs a washer to keep it in place-
put the cam back in time it then make sure that this part doesnt slide out of the housing ----
