Re: Ignition Timing floating - very freaky!! Comments? 700 1986

Your harmonic balancer is slipping. The timing mark is carried on the outer pulley which is rubber mounted from the inner crank bolted piece.

You will need to replace it in order to get a correct timing adjustment if it is slipping while you watch as you describe.

Chalk mark the inner piece and watch and see if the mark placed there does in fact stay still to confirm the balancer failure.
