The cam timing is adjusted by phasing the crank's sprocket on different crank keyways. Each keyway is marked in degrees of cam advance or retard. Options on the sprocket include -6, -4, -2, 0, +2, +4, +6. The sprocket is installed with the keyway matching the label of the desired advance or retard (advance is positive, retard is negative). Once installed, the cam sprocket alignment dot must be aligned with the corresponding sprocket tooth. Do not attempt to line up the keyway with the cam sprocket. In the photo, a pointer is marking the 0 keyway, and the finger is touching the correspondingly marked 0 sprocket tooth.
