trigger wheel. anyone got a x20xev engine manual they can scan?
got a trigger wheel cut by andy on here, all holes etc perfectly centred, and even checked which all sorts of rulers, calipers etc, and its spot on.
but when bolted to the crank, it moves side to side, and today wore the end of the crank sensor, and eventually broke it lol
anyone ever found a crank pulley to be not perfectly round? i'm quite confused. got a feeling even trimming it on a lathe won't help as
the bolt holes are right

Blake, I bought a new on & got the trigger wheel fitted by a local machine shop in the end, after knack'ing a sensor. Cost me about 1/2 hour
- an hour's labour, but it was spot on and they slotted it so I could adjust the timing slightly as I needed, to compensate for the bracket. It
was spot on afterwards - better than me & Phil could manage, anyways.

thing is though, i think if it took the pulley and trigger wheel to anyone, it would still be the same. there's 4 bolts through the trigger, and
these go through the pulley into whatever the pulley's bolted to. i can't see how it can be wrong

Presuming that it's bolted through the pulley to the spigot on the end of the crank, could the pulley be warped or the damper be shot? Some
slight play between the bolts & the spigot, or some slight play between the bolts and the holes in the trigger wheel?
Would it be possible to mount the trigger wheel directly onto the spigot and bolt through the pulley then the trigger wheel. Like a
trigger-wheel sandwich?

might be able to, but that will be a job for when ever the engine is next out  and needs a new sensor bracket. think this is going to end up being a
fair set back getting this sorted..

I got a ring type one from trigger-wheels.com
it wasn't far off, but I was getting a custom alloy pulley made so I had the guy bore out the trigger wheel a bit to make it spot on 
only problem is its not very locost  (especialy the hard anodising)

has anyone got a few pages of a workshop manual for a x20xev engine so i can see how the crank pulley goes together?
i'd consider getting a pulley made if i can easy do away with dampers and stuff, but i need to know exactly how these pulleys go together i
think.
