[AT] WD Timing

[charlie hill]

Dick,  I have no WD experience but on MOST AC stuff there is a hole about 1" 
dia on the right side (sitting in the seat) of the torque tube.  You should 
be able to see the edge of the flywheel through the hole.   There should be 
2 lines on the edge of the flywheel.  One marked DC or Center for retard 
timing and one marked F or Fire for full advance.

Hope that helps.

Charlie
