i here a ticking in the engine up around the jug on the shifter side.i dont think its a rod i think its the timing chain. i read on another website forum about the timing chain makin noises like tapping and such.what i would like to no is if there is a way to adjust this or if someone has a picture of the manual that will tell me how to install a new timing chain.this runs very strong has a little bit of smaoke at idle but i think thats a carbarator problem.any help would be greatly appritiated
