Are you doing a static adjustment for first start or a dynamic running timing adjustment? They require bifferent procedures

Sorry I should have been more clear. I am doing The initial static timing for first start with the test light. I’ll have a read thought the thread to see if it gets me there. Thank you

SWest had a good recommendation in that other post, measure the 1-4 distance from “T” to “F” and transferre that to your 2-3 side of the advancer. That will get you close enough to fire up but I can’t tell you how to fine tune dynamic timing without accurate 2-3 timing marks.

it does not matter when 1/4 is correct 2/3 is correct as long as both are timed at "F" mark at idle.

With a Dyna s the pick up modules have a 10 deg adjustability on the breaker plate. Both 1-4 and 2-3 need to be adjusted. There is no guarantee the are set correctly when they are mounted to the plate at assembly. The OP said he has no “F” mark on the 2-3 side of the advancer, he has no way to verify timing on 2-3.

It´s possible to set/sync both 1-4 and 2-3 temporary @ T-mark and advance later to F 1-4 position, ( F 2-3 is then set exact 180 degree off now as it should).

This. Keep it simple.
I've never understood why Dyna recommends checking timing at full advance. When installing a Dyna S I've found if the T mark is aligned the F will be also when you hold the advancer full on.

Repeating from his other topic on this subject:

There are a few ways to scratch an (F) mark of your own.

The easiest is to just take off your advancer and measure the distance of the (F) mark from T mark on 1-4 and just transfer that to 2-3 and make your own (F) mark. The advancer is hardened so it doesn't scratch real easy, and sharpie marks tend to fade very quickly, so I use a center punch and make a tiny dimple.

You can also look at the timing advance specs and measure the angle using a pointer on the crank etc. if you need it that precise.
