Joe, you're right about the timing marks, provided you're on the right
stroke. As for the timing gear being on backwards, I'm not sure. I've never
had one off the camshaft. I think with the magneto out you could see it if
it were on backwards( with some trouble and effort) by turning the cam gear
and looking on both sides.
