      Hi George,
      
      Thanks for your comment. Unfortunately the tach drive gear must have been pulled
      before I purchased the engine many years ago. Not knowing that, coupled with
      the good luck (or bad luck?) I was able to place the prop on the only cylinder
      that was getting the start air and run this new engine for 10 min during which
      time the air distributor gear badly damaged the oil pump drive shaft. I wish
      the manual called for checking air distributor timing verification as a part
      of its de-preservation process but, in my case, it is too late now. 
      
      So my original question is not relevant anymore because I will send my engine to
      a shop for repair.
      
      Best regards,
      
      Robin
      
      [quote="GeorgeCoy"]My 2 cents. If you pull the inner pat of the Russian tach drive,
      There is a
      good chance the mating bevel gear has dropped down. We had a client with an
      almost new TW do this and got it started. The bevel gear  chewed trough
      another shaft and fille the engine with mental.
      	If it is reinstalled already, you can check the air start timing to
      confirm that it did not move.
