| + | **Another consideration**: | ||
| + | The position of the mark on the pinion gear to line up #2 cam is straight across from the slot in the back of the gear. \\ | ||
| + | This slot can be widened with wear and not line up perfectly with the keyway on the pinion shaft. \\ | ||
| + | The keyway is actually what #2 cam should line up with. \\ | ||
| + | So if the pinion gear is off a little from the woodruff key location, the cams can appear not to line up perfectly together (even though they are). \\ | ||
| + | So while lining up the pinion gear and #2 cam, there may be a fudge factor there also to consider when the dots aren't lined up perfectly. \\ | ||
| + | You can see that the pinion gear is installed to the right of the center of the slot in the third pic below. \\ | ||
| + | |||
| + | | Be of mind of the woodruff key location in the pinion gear slot. ((photos by ~Grind~ of the XLFORUM http://xlforum.net/forums/showthread.php?t=1448694)) ||| | ||
