If you read what I put up and look at the pump at the same time it's really simple. If your not comfortable don't do it, that simple. You will be amazed how easy it is thou.

ah its ok. I know my way comfortably around the engine, I think I'll turn my barrels, I just don't wan't anything to go wrong since the fuel amount won't be EXACTLY the same for each cylinder since it's just a guestimation..

a big deal, as in because something can go wrong, or the power advantages? Maybe your pictures are too big, because on the upload screen it states max file sizes that it will upload, maybe you can re size them in paint program or something?

this is what they look like after you have racked them. from the front of the engine looking back. you can see where they used to sit. if you want any other kind of picture i figured this thing out. LOL

Good picture that ought to explain everything. That is the engine side of the pump and you tap that side back. There is a nut on the other side just like the side 2332 is showing you.

I slightly understand what's going on... I just don't see what has changed exactly, would you be able to show where they were and where you set them at? I can't seem to figure out the picture, while not understanding what's involved here..

look at the picture. do you see the rusty outline? you can also see a dot. before the barrels are moved you cant see any of this. by spinning the barrels you reveal the little circle and the new gasket material that has never seen the light of day. the barrels are only going to move the 1/8th or 3/16 ish of an inch from stock. it isnt much but if you look at the picture compared to yours you will understand how they move.
