There was still backlash all the way round but obviously not enough as 150 metres from home there was an awful din from the front of the engine. I freewheeled down the hill back home and found half a dozen cam/crank gear teeth in the bottom of the timg case. Fortunately no pthe damage
Sorry, should say "timing " and "other" Fat finger syndrome.
I checked it on all teeth several times around so hopefully there aren't any tight spots. I couldn't feel any turning by hand. It's why I stopped at 3 thou and not the minimum of 2, just to have a little margin for errors!
