1989 XT600 (kick start) timing question
I am getting a clicking sound from top end. Motor is new to me, its had a recent top end rebuild (piston, chain and clean up) before I bought it.
I checked the chain and it is on the 1st wear mark (new).
loosened and tighten decompress cable and no change to clicking.
Timing mark question.
When my rocker arms have a little movement they are at the mark with the little circle and line through it. Which is not TDC
When I turn the flywheel till the "T" the rockers have no movement but the piston is TDC (checked also with screw driver).
I am wondering if the clicking comes from the valves being maladjusted?
The book says the the rockers should have a little play at TDC
The bike runs strong now and idles smoothly, just worried about the top end noise.
Am I thinking this through correctly?
Thanks
Greg
