Default Re: Ignition timing

Michael,

The "knowledgable answer" would include exactly what you've said.

Further, there is no guarantee that sending your distributor out for rebuilding will have it TIMED correctly. That includes units that have been "set up" on Sun or Allen strobers and the rebuilder does not understand initial advance. There are a bunch of guys running around losing 20% or more of their advance because of improper settings.

I know you are well aware of the issue and that distributors leave your shop correctly set.
