Need help folks. I have a Yamaha 2001 Kodiac Utramatic 400. I pulled the recoil off and looked through the timing window and brought the "T" up in the window but the piston is not on TDC its still coming up. Cam gear is off about 45 degrees to aligning with the mark on the head. You have to rotate the motor a lot more so the piston is at TDC and the valves have play but now the flywheel has gone by its marks by about 45 degrees. The cam chain tensioner was not maxed out nor did the chain appear to be loose. I have set the timing on many types of 3 wheelers but I was just wondering if this might be a different design of timing . I don't have manual and have looked all over the internet for help but come up short.. any help would be great.. Thanks
