Hi All,

I am wondering how to properly time my Little M crawler. What should be what and what marks on the flywheel and what not.

I am also wondering if someone could send me the gear pattern on the machine.

One other thing, My dozer doesnt have an electric start on it, but am wondering if it should have somewhere I could put one on. I don't see any starter hole near the flywheel but am wondering if I have missed something

Thanks

Stand in front of tractor look down carb side just behind and below should be a round tin plate (early models may not have hole in starter pan) depends on year of yours

you need a starter pan and maybe a flywheel/ringear of a post 38 m or a post 41 u both take same starter pan so will bolt straight up your fly wheel might even have a ringear on it.
