You've got it about 90 degrees off....

orient the ring as per the instructions with the ''adjustment screw'' facing straight up in relation to the head

Adjustment screw straight up and down like the way the piston travels.
That's just it.... I don't have an ''adjustment screw'' like that in the instructions.

Instead I have a tangential tightening screw that is much like a hose clamp screw.

I can't position it straight up, as then the tightening arm is blocked by the carb mount.

Click on the picture I posted and you'll see the problem.

Also note the position of the sensor when the screw is straight up.




Think about it, You can put the magnet anywhere on the hub. He chose to mount the magnet 180 degrees so it gets the sensor out of the way and allows you to get to the adjustment screw a little easier .

As long as the sensor/magnet fires the plug at 28 degrees before TDC the position of the sensor/magnet is irrelevant.
