[QUOTE=Tom Wesenberg;893395]When the timing pin drops into the cam gear detent, the rotor position should look like this, with any freeplay on the CCW direction. So, you may be able to turn the rotor a little counter clockwise, but should NOT be able to turn it clockwise when the points cam screw is tightened.
