To set the timing on a 4.5 hp Tecumseh motor, first ensure the engine is off and the spark plug is removed to prevent accidental starting. Rotate the flywheel until the piston is at top dead center (TDC) on the compression stroke, aligning the timing mark on the flywheel with the mark on the engine. Adjust the ignition points or magneto so that the contact points open just as the timing marks align. Finally, reassemble the spark plug and test the engine to confirm proper timing.

How do you get the crankshaft timing set if its 45 degrees off when number 1 piston is dtc?

If the crankshaft timing is 45 degrees off when the number 1 piston is at top dead center (TDC), first ensure that the timing marks on the crankshaft and camshaft align correctly according to the manufacturer's specifications. If they do not align, you may need to remove the timing belt or chain and reposition it by turning the crankshaft back to TDC while ensuring the timing marks on both the crankshaft and camshaft are aligned. After reassembling, double-check that all components are secure and that the timing is correct before starting the engine.

If 50 counters are in the whole set what fraction of the set is 45 counters?

Well, honey, if there are 50 counters in total and 45 of them are the ones you're interested in, then the fraction of the set that represents 45 counters is 45/50. Simplify that fraction and you'll get 9/10. So, 45 counters make up 9/10 of the whole set. Hope that clears things up for ya, sugar!

If 50 counters are the whole set what fraction of the set is 45?

If there are 50 counters in the whole set, and 45 are set aside, the fraction would be 45 over 50. This could be broken down by dividing both sides by 5, making the fraction 9 over 10.
