D10 Series 3 Timing

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Today I checked the timing.  I saw 3 marks on my flywheel. F25, CENTER, and FIRE.  I have been having some overheating issues, so I wanted to check the timing.  At full bore, warmed up, CENTER was in the window.  I adjusted the Distributor until it said FIRE.  The tractor cooled down some.  Then after checking the manual to install the thermostat I saw to my horror that it is supposed to be timed to F25.  After reading on here it seems they are interchangeable, but on my flywheel they are in very different locations.   Which do I use?

(All the marks are upside down)  

Thanks!

Kevin
