there is one think im confused still about how do oyu put it back into timing?
buy a manual and youll have it running in no time...and if you already have a manual, read the manual and you will have it running in no time.

if i lived within 200miles of you id probably drive over and fix the damn thing. but i cant. im almost positive from what youve described its not timing. it would only cost about 60$ just to have a shop find out whats wrong, and then you could go from there.
good luck though.
If youre using a timing light------USE THE "F" --F is for ignition--T is for valves
Buy American! Unless your only option is a HARLEY.

I wonder how well a timing light will work, you need to have the trike running to use itOriginally Posted by Unclediezel

If the timing is off, then the cam chain is off a tooth or more, the only other option is that something is broken.
BUY A MANUAL!!!

I will have to agree with you on that, How many times have you told him the same thing OVER AND OVER AND OVER againOriginally Posted by thefox
WHY WONT YOU TAKE YOUR FLYWHEEL COVER OFF AND CHECK TO SEE IF YOUR WOODRUFF KEY ISNT SHEARED!!!
For the love of god!!!!
Sorry for yelling but that is VEEEEERY simple to do.
Exactly!, theres been a load of helpful replies in other posts of guys telling you how you can find out whats wrong but you havent listened.Originally Posted by Yamahauler
When my Z refused to start and unclediezel suggested checking the flywheel key, it took all of maybe 10 minits to check it................ IN THE DARK! so get up and of the computer and go check it, if not foryourself but just to give our patient yamaha doctor some relief![]()

Was it neccessary to make another thread YTM?
Wasn't there enough room in one of the other 5 threads you've made about this rather simple problem?
Anyway, good luck with your endevours![]()

Ok guys i took all of your info and tried it all.. I took off the cover on the left side of the engine that shows the timing chain and yes i think the timing is excellent! it has a mark and its on the top and it lined up with the t in the timing window so i guess its not timing? also i tried starting fluid in the caRB NO GO BUT it back fired 3 times i dont really understand this woodruff key thing you guys are talking about i took the pull start cover off and i see a big bolt in the center do i have to take that bolt off?
the electric is all redone so thats not the case
