I am rebuilding my Rotax 447 engine, it was stopping after 20-30 seconds of run, so i took it apart, decarbonized, replaced the gaskets and all.
While putting it back together, i was doing the ignition test and found out that ignition is off. The TDC test showed me that its firing late? I am attaching some pics, wandering if someone can help me fix this.

Shown below is the TDC (Top Dead Center) position; the little dial i got is accurate to .001"
