another one here..
hello. just been through all this with my 1vj tenere (same leak, same place), and today we came to start it. after a few gentle kicks the kickstart is fairly jammed but you can still turn the crank with the rotor bolt on the left hand side (as used to check the timing). although when you do turn it it moves with a juddering and a whiring kind of noise like if you turn it backwards by mistake. obviously im going to check the timing again tomorrow, but during re-assembly it was turning really sweatly and it was fine whilst i was checking the valves etc, so it has been turned over several times by hand. could this be a completely seperate thing or more likely the timing? im convinced i set it all right and the fact that its been turned over a bit prior is confusing me!
sorry to butt in at this late stage, but its a similar thing so i thought it best not to start a new thread.
any help appreciated.
P.s. i used the timing mark with a T next to it to determine the tdc. was this the right choice? its what i always use for the valve clearences.
p.p.s. when i took the engine appart i removed all the bolts bar the swing arm and the engine tilted forwards to give clearance, i dont know if this is what youre supposed to do for the ttr?
all fingers crossed !!
karl.
