120S and 125A camshaft query

Can I replace the camshaft in my 120S with one from a 125A? The one in my 120S is very worn and I have a wrecked 125A I can salvage the camshaft from.

Would camshaft timing one tooth out cause a F/S engine to run hot?

I have an OS 120 Surpass which runs seems to be running excessively hot. If the camshaft timing is out by one tooth could this be the cause?

RE: Venus II

Jim, Use either clear or white. No particular brand - I usually use Bostik but I'm not sure if you can get it in the US. Have also used Dow Corning.

Hi Chuck, Have a look at post #690 on this thread. I use Don's spoileron set up and it works like magic. So much so that I have set up several of my other planes with spoilerons as well. Lynton
