Evening all,
I don't know whether this is an accepted means of adjustment, or frowned upon, but for the past few builds I've always used Rizla "Green" papers between the gears, to then get the gear meshed hard and then tighten the large idlers mounting. Does anyone have any comments on whether this is a bad method? All previous attempts I have done by "fell" have either resulted in excessive rattling or "ringing" (I gotta say, it's impressive when you first hear that sound.....), while using this method has tended to result in a quiet timing area.
Regards
Rob Vincent
