EDIT: up above I should say "a test light in series with the points", not "across the points" |

I agree with Iron... I own a pro quality multimeter (Fluke 87) and while it's a darned good meter, the "beep" to indicate continuity IS delayed from the actual event.
A test light is instantaneous (and cheap) Just my 0.02 John

Dodge Trucker I have looked online for an inch/pound torque wrench that has a reading up to 200 inch/pounds. They are way more than I can afford. I do not know of any place that rents them or know any one that has one to loan. I feel sure that you know what you are talking about but I am going to have to go with what I torqued it to and hope it is not too far off specs. This Tractor will not be used much so I feel sure it will out last me. I really appreciate your input.
Ironman & jBrewer Thanks for your information on the meter that beeps. Was going to Harbor Freight today to purchase one but you have convinced me not to. Going to take your advise and set the points with a test light. Thanks for instructing how to use this method with the engine on the work bench. Have a great day, Bob |

I've been using a multimeter as a continuity tester for static timing these engines for years. I never notice any delay--it beeps the instant you touch the probes together and stops as soon as the circuit is broken. I have a Greenlee and a couple Flukes. No delay that I can detect.
Mr. Bob, test light is probably cheaper...so go for it.

I can't hear the beep on my meter anyway. I go get my kids if I have to use that function. They think it's funny I can't hear it. I can hear it if it's dead silent, and the meter is near my head. They, can hear it with a radio on and a fan blowing, lol! |

Beep? hell I lucky to hear any sound high pitched like that.
Good thing I can't hear a cricket in the house Was a time it drove me crazy. So there are good points about tinnitus. |

Yup I too get to hear crickets even though it is winter, notice it mostly when I have everything in the house shut off and I head to bed, could be worse sounds...
I occasionally get the "you don't hear that?" From others around me. mostly (I think) it's higher pitch sounds. I remember my industrial maintenance days, we were req'd to get our hearing tested once a year and between the last 2 times they said something about missing some higher end stuff that I was ok with previous time, that was 10 years ago sure I am no better these days than I was then |

Thank you Ironman for giving detailed instructions on setting the time with engine on a work bench. Gave it a shot yesterday and I believe this is the best the timing has ever been. So much easier on the work bench. After setting the time, I rolled the crank over 2 times, came back to the "S" on crank and it was spot on. Also checked the valve lash and had to make an adjustment to it. Had it pretty close when setting it with out the fly wheel on to determine top dead center. Thanks and have a great day.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
