[QUOTE="kirrbby, post: 100343, member: 3972"] Did you reset the points after you moved the cam chain? I'm not positive but I think your timing mark set just below the mark on the head is preferable. You can adjust the cam chain tension manually on a 74 by removing the, 14mm (I think) nut that's just under the shift shaft, then loosen the locking nut with a slotted stud then tighten the adjuster thats in the hole where you removed the 14mm. Lol long sentence. Hope that makes sense. The locking nut locks the slotted stud, to clarify, the stud is basically a set screw for the cam chain adjuster. Back the stud off before turning the adjuster. You should search for a service manual. [/QUOTE]
