I have 2-wire ckp with the same part no. as yours. Haynes says the gap should be 1.5 mm. Hmmm.
that makes me wonder. I need to check that gap. It was my son who installed it. Brand new and with brand new o-ring. Does that ring a bell to you?
Maybe. Just maybe my son did not tighten the bolt enough for fear of breaking it as I often warn him not to do. That o-ring might not have been compressed enough such that the gap is more than 1.5 mm.
Just a thought. What is the advantage of using magnetic ckp sensors over hall effect sensors which have stronger/cleaner signals?
The timing cannot be wrong because the tone wheel is fixed rigid to the crank and there is no adjustment to move the sensor around. I will check it next,next weekend. Wish me luck!
Thanks.
