When replacing the stupid water pump seal (again) the kickstart shaft popped out of place (again). I marked the clutch basket, crankshaft gear and top timing gear with a sharpie so I when I put it back together I could get everything aligned and timed correctly.
When I pulled the clutch basket the top timing gear spun about a quarter turn. What is the best way to get it back into the proper place to reinstall the clutch basket? The timing mark is pointing straight down towards the crankshaft gear.
Can I simply move the crankshaft gear into the proper TDC alignment without damaging the valves or do I somehow have to move the valve train back a quarter turn? I'm a little confused...
Oh, also.. I found the little E-Clip that hold the oil pump gear on the shaft mangled on my oil drain magnet! Anyone know what size that is? Its item #8 on page 59 of the 06 parts manual. I can buy those little clips locally if I know what size I need.
Thanks in advance!
