New to me 149
Figured I would just start my own thread since I had a few questions as well. Just picked up a 149 and based on the serial number looks like April 1972. I have a few things to fix such as lights blew a fuse. I want to rewire the whole thing actually to freshen it up. It came with a 44'' deck which I will use come spring time to cut grass. I'm going to change oil and rebuild the carburetor and put a new air filter on.
Now my question. I was reading up on doing a static timing but can't seem to find a sight hole. Engine is a K321A, Spec. No. 60166c. There is no sight hole on either side of engine on the flywheel shroud. I was reading on another forum that most are below the S/G and sometimes they are on the carb side but I can't find one. Also read another guy has a sight hole on the front. Below the S/G on bearing plate is Serial No. 14078150 and it appears to be a raised nib like a timing reference marker but no hole to see the flywheel.
Any help would be appreciated.
