KIPS advance reassembly
About ready to reassemble my 01 200. I can't find info in manual about whether the KIPS shaft should be rotated max clockwise or counter clockwise when engaging the rack during assembly. Can anyone advise which way, if you understand the question?

Scruffy, Thanks for the link. To get the line on shaft close to that picture, The shaft must be turned full clock wise. That must be fully closed on the valve and it would open as rpm increases.
Thanks again.
Thanks again.

Maybe I'm reading what you're saying wrong. Full clockwise on that gear is valves wide open. You need to have the gear full counter clockwise (valves closed) and then attach the left hand thread actuator arm making sure the indented dot on the arm and the line on shaft line up.patreilly wrote:Scruffy, Thanks for the link.

Re: KIPS advance reassembly
I guess it would all depend on which side you are looking at lol. From memory, I think john is looking from the RH side of the motor, and pat is looking from the LH side. It is so that main valve is all the way into the cylinder as far as it can go.
