My girlfriends BR550 is down. I tried to retime and can't get it to run well or not at all. We need to know the procedure for retiming engine. engine is all apart and not sure to correct way to reasemble. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

No Bull,

Thats odd it worked yesterday. I copied it from another forum. The link was about half way down from the poster named Cranheim. Just copy the link and post it in your browser. If that doesn't work, I can email it to you as I downloaded the pdf file.

Were the instructions for retiming BR550 have black blocks coving some of the instructions. I could see pictures but had a difficult time reading the instructions on what to check for. is there a better link that shows all of the instructions. This might help though. It looks like by the pictures I might of had the flywheel timing off slightly. I'll retime and see if it works. Thanks
