This isn't my machine. But I told the guy I would look. Searched the forum and didn't find it. If you need more information will call and ask. He replaced the piston and wanted to know how to set the timing up. THanks in Advance for any help.

take the CDI cover off and make sure the O mark on the Cam (the sprocket) lines up with the T mark (where you take the CDI cover off, its on top)

If that right, then take off the timing cover (its by the pullstart and is opened by a Flathead screwdriver) Use a flashlight and find the F mark, make sure that lines up with the mark on the sidecover.

Thats my jist of it.
