  1. So I have a theory. Say we been assuming from the front side was #1(closet to the bow). What if its 1342 from left to right (stern to bow). Also let's assume the timing gear has marks on both sides. What if he put the gear on backwards, wouldn't this put the cam lobes 180 off.... If he flips the gear over, then it would be right? The only other thing I can thing of is the metal shim between the gear and the shaft. He says the gear is suppose to bottom out against it... Only 3 things I can think of after tons of reading and videos Sent from my XT1528 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  2. Oh and the only other thing he mentioned was he forgot a metal shim that goes between the timing gear and the camshaft? But he says the gear will not move but it sure sounds like to me it could slide in or out putting the whole thing out of line... But what do I know...

  3. I'm not personally doing it but I imagine he did that right. Basically what he is saying to me is that the timing gear is wrong or the marks on it are wrong by a tooth or two. He says the distributor lines up with the crankshaft at tdc. He says everything lines up by the marks on the gear, and crank gear, but it sounds like the valves are out of time. He wants to take it all apart and try to make sure it all matches the old stuff. The only difference I seen was that the old gear was fiber and the new one is aluminium. Fran from Barret is out of town so no brain to pick there. Should left the old camshaft in and went fishing Sent from my XT1528 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  4. Specs for my motor. We set everything to spec. Except maybe dwell. He had dwell meter for a 6 and a 8 but not a 4 cylinder. Compression test said they were 149. 148 150 and 149. It would not idle and when we put it on the timing gun and it didn't show anything. He even tried another gun. Suppose to have Lake take a look at it. Looks like snow flakes before this tin can sees a good day of fishing. Sent from my XT1528 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  5. Guy I have rebuilding this has never done dwell before... Any mechanics near not doing winterizing never Ovid area... Prefer somebody who knows what their doing figure it out... Sent from my XT1528 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  6. Thanks I look threw it when I get some time tonight. Sent from my XT1528 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  7. Thanks pap. We'll give it a try after work Sent from my XT1528 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  8. Anyone got a manual with the valve lash torque, timing, and Carb settings? Put a new CAM in... Now the boat will barely start unless I give it throttle to idle. When I try to open it up, the motor chokes out. The mechanic I got working on it says "the coil is bad. Some one hooked it up backwards"... Obviously it was him not willing to take the blame... He said " they don't last long when hooked up wrong". So I asked " how did I get 4 or 5 days use out of it then if some one else hooked it up wrong?" He never gave me an answer...continued to say it was fuel or spark... Couple topics I read said it could be lash is to tight, carb needs adjusting, timing could be off... The coil is only $40 so I will start there today but if anyone has specs... I'd greatly appreciate it. My motor is a 69 but 64-72 is there years for part listing... Thanks for any help!

  9. None in that color. Brewers has been closed for weeks and I don't feel like driving to bass pro this weekend. Maybe next weekend Sent from my XT1528 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  10. I haven't had much luck after 9 am. I've had luck from sun up to 9 and from 4 pm til dark. 0/1 today... Them big silvers elude me every time... They keep breaking spoons off. Going to try further south later. Sent from my XT1528 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  11. Using frog pattern don't think I have anything red. Went from dean's to Sheldrake... Just the one big sliver that broke off. Sent from my XT1528 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  12. Any tips for color day fishing? I'm out right now. Had one large salmon hit but broke off.. Haven't had a hit since. Fishing between 80 and 150 sutton 71 down 70 took hit. Green and silver stinger 40 down Nada. Mag dipsey down 80 on 3. Tried green and black and chicken wing pizza spoon. My flies are faded so I haven't tried them...

  13. I wouldn't be trying to late after dark and I'd be heading back if anything. I have Navnoics program on my phone that works good. Sent from my XT1528 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  14. Dec officer comes threw and leaves pink tickets if you don't pay for a ticket. Soon as you come down the stairs there is an automated pay station. They come down every day couple times a day. Use to be able go fish a few hours before dark... Now you have to pay $7 no matter what. I usually get stuck paying the $14... Sent from my XT1528 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  15. We are considering buying the life pass for $750. But not this year. Sent from my XT1528 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  16. Good to know. Was wondering if it was like a fishing license. You can't buy a new one until the old one runs out. Just curious if lasted 24 hours. I miss the days you could go to Dean's cove after 7 and fish a few hours free... I been paying before dark and first thing in the morning. Wish Seneca was doing better... I'd fish right out Lodi for free... They never have anyone there... I imagine eventually their will be a computerized ticket maid there. Sent from my XT1528 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  17. How long does a park tick last? I bought one with my card once at night the. Next morning tried to use the same card... Didn't work... Guy behind me used a card and it worked fine... Maybe it was just me. Good thing I had $7 that morning Sent from my XT1528 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  18. Did you try any glow spoons or flies with e chip? Just curious if vibration would help. I wouldn't be out to much past dark. Maybe hour and half tops. Rebuilt the motor but I rather not be the only one on the lake after dark and have something go wrong Sent from my XT1528 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  19. I've noticed just before it is to dark to see and first light there is a lot of bait as you said in shallower. Last trip about 8 weeks ago, when I past threw an area there was nothing on the screen, came back threw on the same ledge there was a ton of bait and hooked up to a real nice ll that broke the line. I also noticed this scenario happened on Seneca when fishing with buddy before the derby. I or my girlfriend miss placed my kicker ez steer arm. Going to get a new one today and give it a shot tomorrow morning. Hope I can find some bigger LL's. Sent from my XT1528 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  20. I read some articles stating during a full moon that Lakers can be active during the night. I don't plan on staying out like walleye guys would but with light setting earlier, is it worth staying out from 8pm to 9:30? Also it would be Cayuga that I would try.

  21. Location? Sent from my XT1528 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  22. I have a drift sock... If I can't find a use one today or find mine I'll over night one. Sent from my XT1528 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  23. Thanks for the info. I think mine was an older one. Just wish I could remember where I put mine... Trying to get out an hour or two before work, and a hour or two before dark... Spent all summer rebuilding the main motor... At least next year I'll be ready... Sent from my XT1528 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  24. Looks like an ez steer arm. Wish I could just figure out where my girlfriend put mine... $140 for a new one and the gotta wait for it to ship... Sucks. Sent from my XT1528 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  25. Connectors were two air compressor fittings. Length was adjustable I can measure the gap. I just got my main motor rebuild. Trying to get a couple trips in before it gets cold out Sent from my XT1528 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
