Timing a Honda 185/200cc ATC, 1982 ATC200 ignition damage,

10_13_2015, Timing a Honda 185/200cc ATC, 1982 ATC200 ignition damage, taking a few moments to show proper ignition timing, also, the damage found on my ATC200, not sure if things just wore out, and fell a part, or if something came loose, found the timing chain loose too, Harvey Spooner, Hoarding Mayhem, Honda ATC200, ATC185, ATC200, timing,

Thanks for the vid, I haven't checked my cam sprocket for TDC alignment, that will be my next inspection, When I bought this machine my pulser was in the same shape as that one, the pin was sheered and the springs scattered all over! I think I found a nail and cut it to size and used that for a cam pin, I cant recall ever replacing it and it seems to hold the coil in place,

[@HarveySpooner]

+Dirk Smithson , I hope the video helps. I am not comfortable putting this engine back together until I take the top end off and explore a little. The advancer may have flown a part from wear... I guess the really loose timing chain is making me a bit nervous, I'm probably going to slam one of the engines that is floating about, looking for a home in that thing for now and spend some quality time on that engine later. Let me know how U make out and what U learn on Ur engine. Thanks for the info, watching, and commenting!

I thought you were supposed to time the cam at tdc not fire I'm confused

[@linusmadrone]

I had to eliminate the advance and weld the pieces together at the outside end. They kept going to pieces on me. I removed it except for the bare plate on the inside end. Timed it with the stator and it runs better than ever. Idles great and doesn't lack power at high rpm. No need for the advance. But You have to know what you are doing!!!!! Or 😮. Good video, lots of information, Thank You.

[@dannydepino3874]

Hey Harvey I stumbled on one of your old videos I'm restoring a 200x engine great knowledge.

[@linusmadrone]

I have a 1982 XL 185, it has destroyed that part twice now. I had to weld it in the right place, no advance now. But. Once timed it runs better than ever without the advance! More power! High and low r.p.m.s,. And it won't come apart on me again. 30,000 miles so far.

[@Vhiadra]

i just pulled my cdi cover off my 200e and its the same way, the little pin is missing and its all falling apart like yours but it ran great all along now i have weak spark, i changed my plug wire, plug, coil, checked timing, didnt change the cdi, or stator yet, checking my ground in a few minutes i just shut the bike off after 10 minutes of driving and it doesnt want to start now

[@HarveySpooner]

Hey Vhiadra, I would check the spacing between the CDI pulser and the magnetic trigger, (the mechanical advancer),. I set the spacing with a piece of standard printer / copier paper... If this doesn't fix it, let me know, we can go thru piece by piece.... Thanks for asking, watching, and commenting!!!!

[@Vhiadra]

+Harvey Spooner thank you buddy, turns out my pulse generators * i think thats the name, they were blown apart haha , i appreciate the reply keep up the great work!

[@jasonsevercool8283]

Harvey u r a life saver u save me time ty god blesd

[@joshuawray5917]

I thought the book said to line the cam up on t not f. Im confused. I know this video is old but please respond im in the middle of my 2nd rebuild. Thank you

[@nicholascleveland7758]

I've got a 81 honda atc 185s that someone just put new rings in well it ran pretty good before hand now it runs very rough and when you give it any gas at all it either dies or attempts to every time, carb is pretty much new so no problems there although my cam chain is loose it was loose before the rings were changed and i can't seem to get it tight the guiders look ok to me so I'm lost any help would greatly be appreciated.

[@wtbm123]

Good info . what about that garage insulation . lol

[@HarveySpooner]

+wtbm123 , Been thinking about that, I think I am going to line up Signalman James to help me with that task, it will go much faster with 2 people... Thanks for reminding me, it keeps it in the front of my mind... Thanks also for the kind words, watching, and commenting!

[@wtbm123]

+Harvey Spooner Just thinking if you insulate , i will not need to wear a coat this winter , while watching your videos . lol

[@mrkhokon8813]

Pick-up coil is in the angle position of the crank? or the timing of the F-Mark Crank case of Magnet is given on any side of the pick-up coil magnet ?

[@sfllife03]

Maybe you can help me I can not get my 200s running I put new everything stator fly wheel coil getting great spark new carb can’t get it to run has great compression for some reason when I crank it gas sprays out of the back of carb I watch your video on timing just don’t know what to do I am stumped please if you can help I would really appreciate it

[@joshauastarkey2561]

Did u ever figure it out

[@mikeshobbiesandrandomstuff]

Intake valve might be sticking

[@willycochrane2173]

I have I have a 200 fourtrax the on and off switches went bad on it I can't get it to fire I got power going into my CDI box but nothing coming out it's been setting 4 years

[@kyleturner3999]

Harvey love the video! I’m looking at an 83 Honda enduro 200. The guy said the timing advancer has a broken tooth. Should I be weary of that before I buy it ?

[@cedarrapidsfpvracing1155]

so my timing chain is on but when i pull the pull star it does not turn the timing pulser at all? what could do this?also the chain is very sloppy on the timing and the bolt that should tighten does nothing i pulled it out turning to far and it was about 1 1/2 inches long total. not sure whats going on here can you help at all? great video and my great grandparents last name was also spooner thats kool! he was a great mechanic loved his rambler wagon lol. thanks for any help in advance. tom

[@Boogerboys1990]

Here's ur problem. Ur cam tension bolt is jammed. Easy fixkzbin.info/www/bejne/faHSeZtverKbl7c

[@dylanbelanger1271]

i was wondering if you would happen to have a spare 81-83 atc 185s engine lying around that you would be willing to part with does not matter if it runs or not i really needs some engine parts!

[@williamstaten8102]

looks like they forgot that half moon keeper. cam walked out and busted the advance.

[@HarveySpooner]

+william staten , I was thinking that or that the bolt that hold the advancer to the cam got loose and everything was swimming about until bad things happened... Thanks for your thoughts, watching, and commenting!

[@RustyGlovebox]

Well I guess that when having a hoard comes in really handy always some spare parts around ...lol Circle up, lobes down and f up on the flywheel. Got it

[@HarveySpooner]

+Rusty “rustyglovebox” Glovebox , When I was a kid, I read about Thomas Edison creating a workshop that had every part and spare part that can ever be needed... I guess I modeled my hoard after that, see that, we will have U timing up Honda ATCs in no time! Thanks for the encouragement, watching, and commenting!

[@tectalabyss]

Hello Harvey. Now you know you are supposed to answer your better half with ( Yes Dear or Hi Honey ) :) Seems your Wife will have to retrain you, Lol very well explained. All the best. Bobby

[@HarveySpooner]

+Bobby Tectalabyss , My wife hates the camera, never wants to be videoed... So, I had to warn her so that she understood... My wife is always trying to train me, if I were a dog, I would be stuck back in the pound and labeled not trainable... Thanks for your thoughts, watching, and commenting Bud!

[@claytondeeds5812]

My cam chain and cam is loose just like yours did you ever figure out if it was an issue? love your videos!

[@bradmarsh469]

Idk if u can help but I have a 200 ATC and I pull it over and the compression or something pulls my arm back any info would be great thanks

[@Boogerboys1990]

Ur decompression spring. Cable or something inside the pull start is not correct.

[@Boogerboys1990]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/ioCqf5irf7Nsmqc. Here's a series of vids. That are great. I garuntee u have a bad decompression part

[@slammedncammed9657]

I have a 185s Honda and a Kawasaki duckster

[@HarveySpooner]

Hi Jake!!! I had to google the Duckster to see what it is.... Looks like a nice ATC... Thanks for the subscription, watching, and commenting!!!

My 1982 Honda ATC 110 wont start.

[@Boogerboys1990]

Carb

[@KSI_Revelations]

well, I got it running again, but it acts funny when you drive it, I think its the carburetor or the spark plug, here's a video, kzbin.info/www/bejne/hp-kmJyFqpKHp6M Comments ?

[@HarveySpooner]

Hi Dashie!!! I watched Ur video and left my comments on Ur channel, seems to be running rich, what does Ur air filter look like, try it without one for a minute, see how she runs, my golf cart was doing that and it turns out bees backed the air box vent holes with mud.... Let me know how it all turns out.... Thanks for asking, watching, and commenting!!!!

[@KSI_Revelations]

+Harvey Spooner I'll figure it out, I do think it is running rich too. I don't currently have an air filter on it and it dies if I restrict airflow any at all, I'm thinking its fuel
