Just set/confirmed my 2.0 timing.
Vac hose from distributer removed and plugged/2800rpm/28 degrees. It runs good, how do you how/how can you tell when it's "right" or optimal? That magic balance between power and efficiency..... |

Carbs, change in compression, cam change, type of fuel, etc... all make it a seductive dance of power. I started with 12 degrees BTDC at idle and 28 degrees BTDC above 3K RPM and went from there.
I'm not there now... Keep an eye on AFR and CHT and experiment. Going lean (having to add fuel) typically means you are headed in the right direction. |
