Great xs400 forum! Im glad to be a new member!
I just got my hands on a xs400 4G5 1982 that i try to get running. I fixed the most of the problems except this.
When I set LF timing (with both valves closed, LF mark on flywheel is in line with the housing arrow, done with test light)
the ignition baseplate needs to pass the end stop, clockwise a tiny bit.
How is this possible? What could cause this problem?
I attached a picture, previous owner seem to have messed around quite a bit. ”shavings”
