Hiya Lee. I too have to do the same job on my 54 plate 190 and over the last two weeks I've been searching on here for a how-to thread using the correct tools. After all, if someone has been there before and didn't do the timing correctly, it would be a good idea to do it this time using those correct tools!
It seams that it is quite possible to do the job without the tools and the excellent thread that gazcaz has pointed out proves the point. However, you and I want to use the tools. The only vid I've seen so far is a factory vid from quite some time ago as the rear sprockets are not the same as the sprockets on my 190 or the ones on that thread. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2fFx8SPiTSc What I'd like to know is, do the original tools still work on those later sprockets? And if they don't, what else do we use? Don't forget, the tool kit you have must have the additional timing plates for the 190, if of course, you are timing a 190. Hopefully someone will come on with some answers Steve |

Thanks Bob, another useful thread. I've seen that one and I'm tempted, but I would like to see one using the tools!

Many thanks for the offer Phil but you are a bit of a trot from me!
All I need to know though is, do the tools fit on both types of sprockets? I don't want to buy the wrong tools. Steve |
