Code FJ 20-07 IGNITION TIMING
It is recommended to modify the original woodruff
key by removing approximately 1.5mm of the
thickness of the section that protrudes from the
crankshaft. This allows the flywheel to be installed in
a position advanced from the original position (i.e.
rotated clockwise seen from the fin side relative to
the crankshaft). It is permited to omit the woodruff
key but retaining a modified key make setting the
timing quick and easy.
It is reccomended that the timing be set at 3.6mm
btdc using the leading edge of the trailing magnet
(second magnet) lined up with the left hand side of
the long lamination leg as reference.
The maximum advance allowed is 3.8mm btdc with
no tolerance.
It is reccommended that an appropriate "locktite" is
used on the tapered surfaces and that the nut is
torqued to 25Nm.

CARBURETTOR
NB! The original die cast inlet manifold is to be used and may not be machined. In 2019 a rubber inlet manifold will be
introduced to improve carburettor life and this may be used as well.
MUFFLER
* Original Comer gasket to be fitted
* All exhaust gasses must exit via the
two outlet slots ie, any additional
holes / loose exhaust will lead to
exclusion
* Outlet slots may be filed to the maximum
dimensions corners may be radiused
or square.
* A pin with diameter not less than 3.05mm
may not enter the slots anywhere.
* No other alterations permitted
* Heat shield is optional.
PORT TIMINGS
Port timing measurements will be done with either a digital degree wheel or a graduated disc of minimum 280mm diameter and a
pointer that is sharpened to a knife edge. To avoid arguments over parallax errors the pointer should be less than 3mm from face of
the degree wheel where the reading is taken. The sharp point must clearly be on the line defining the maximum measurement. The
measurement will be taken with all the slack in the system taken up i.e. the crankshaft will be rotated until it firmly stops against the
feeler gauge.
The feeler gauge will be 0.2mm thick and 8.0mm wide. The feeler gauge will follow the angle on top of the piston for exhaust port
measurement and be held flat on the bottom of the inlet port.
Inlet Port duration maximum 128 degrees no tolerance
Exhaust Port duration maximum 138 degrees no tolerance
GENERAL
Fuel system: It is permitted to remove the sieve in the fuel tank and enlarge the hole. An inline fuel filter is permitted. It is permitted
to use an o-ring as an additional fixation for the fuel tank.
