On timing those things we had a customer who had a BD and it was timed to Number 6 cylinder instead of Number one.

I found a couple of Hercules operator manuals on e bay that give detailed instructions for pump timing so I think I will be okay to do it. If I run into trouble I know where to get help now. The starter drive is together as of yesterday so I will get the radiator and pony engine out of the garage today and mount them up, then it will be waiting for the repair shop to finish the pump.

Hi, I joined mostly to gather information on the djxc pony engine start hercules that I am close to getting running. I am also interested in crawlers going back as far as the TD14A I started operating in my youth. Paul Larson

joshua_d did you figure out how to time the engine? I know this is an old thread but I read the wrong advice befor pulling the fuel injection pump on my djxc and need to time it when the pump comes back from the repair shop. About all I have to do to get it running is mount the pump, mount the pony engine, put the starter drive together and mount the radiator.
