Got it. PDXtyist (picture) made a nice jig... my comments were about using a dial indicator in an angled plug hole. :Buds

Yes the picture with the head off confused me as that wasn’t what started the thread :(

I am a newbie so this might be a dumb question but isn't the timing fixed?

I am glad my post and “rig” clarified some things. But I really learned how to “time” from some of the guys on this forum asking all kinds of questions. One can find this info in the TY forum.
Thanks all and know how much we appreciate the help and pointers.

This is how I finally figured this out. Be sure to ask a lot. It’s fun too.
