Just put in new springs, slap it back together, get it in time and then see what happens.

At least we can rule out that this was fuel related.

No no i swear it was the fuel!
jokes aside, that’s my plan. i feel cautiously optimistic that it’ll turn out alright. I’ll post an update probably some time this weekend when i can get to it.

I got the new springs and retainers in right before the rain started.

Any tips for setting the cam timing on a 3 chain? i marked the sprockets, chains and have an alignment tool, but want to make sure i’m not gonna blow it on start up.
I was planning on getting it all re aligned with the markings and tool and rotating it over by hand a bunch of times and re check the alignments but if i’m missing something feel free to chime in
