timing chain

[red wagon]

I bought a new timing chain kit for my L20B. The chain only has one shiny link and no other marks on other links. can somebody tell me how many links there are supposed to be between the two marked links.

L20b is 44 links

L16/18/24/26/28 is 42 link

what you can do is put the chain on (while at TDC) ands just keep it tite.

 

then loosely put th efron cover ob and crank pully then turn the motor over a few times and then line up the crank to Zero and see where the marks are at on top (the V notch looking inside the inspection hole of the crank sproket. if it lkined up its good to go. then take cover off and put the seals on ect.....

I just did mine and this helped alot.....:D Hainz says how many there are in the video. The L20b is a few links longer than the L16 which is what I have.
