Had the pin on the gear loosened?
Hi Jordan
Had the pin that holds the cam shaft gear on started to loosen? Had the one on my Pat 13 C60S shear while diving, which lead to lots of popping and banging as I rolled to a stop on the verge of the road, repaired with a rolled pin from local hardware store.
The hole in the shaft was egged out. Had to find/make a tapered ream to use a tapered pin the gear and gear as permanent repair. Since then have checked every distributor I get for looseness, so far two more have turned up that were loose.
Nice job on cleaning and restoring the next part of your engine rebuild. Waiting for the first run video.
Cheers Phil
