Thank you George, but that would be a tough one for me to guarentee.

If somebody wants to send me a final copy of the graphic… I can print these on adhesive vinyl about 3mil for about $.79… Maybe sell for two bucks? I have ink that should hold up for 10 years or more.

The one on my ‘75 is not as legible...

Any luck with graphics? Just noticed mine has flaked off; used to be there...
Thanks!

George - Did anything ever develop with reproducing this sticker (late 1.8 tuneup sticker)? With folks really fixing up things lately, maybe could now get the 20 needed for a GB? Thanks!

OK; have cleaned it up as best I could (I'm not a graphic artist) and resized. Here are the Before and After images. Still need cleanup to show the valve clearance space, extend the divider line and define the top timing arrow more clearly, but almost there!
VG-914 has offered to print, although currently separated from his printer.
Haven't quite figured out how to add members' names/links into a forum post (have seen it done), so will PM you.
Onward!

Here it is! As best as I could do, but better and correct size (75mm x 40mm) per member Oakpark. Sending to VG-914 for vinyl printing, though may not be until July until he's reunited with his printer. Onward!

Well, I'm Virgo AND a recovering engineer, so speaks volumes about me! At least, at my age, I still remember some of these things (not so much about what I had for dinner last night, though...) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Is you still have some time...

how about the periods in vor o. T.

Those are not arrows at the fan housing diagram. They are notches in the housing, which align with a mark on the fan.

OK; here's my next effort. How does this look @JeffBowlsby (not sure how the notches are supposed to look, so sort of guessed)?Attached Image

Nice photochop work.

You deleted the black marks on the fan (former arrows), but the marks are indicating where TDC is which s what you want to see with the strobe light.

Here's the next pass; will do timing light on mine to refresh my eyes/memory on how it's supposed to look. I think (?) I'm getting closer...
@oakpark and @VG-914 : still trying...!
