Re: Need help with engine problem

"a single indicator line on the timing marker"...Is the line TDC, 8 degrees, 12 degrees? ...should not be TDC at 1000 RPM. Or any RPM. Probably more like 10 degrees at 1000 RPM.

"is the valve adjustment too tight?" Sort of sounds like this problem. As TAZ said, confirm TDC and timing marks and check valve adjustment.
