What dizzy are you running?

Too much advance is not good for the engine.

How did you set it? Static or with a timing light?

I really do not know that.

I would like to though, is there a way to identify the dizzy model while it is still installed it the car?


THX Mark, no timing change just points and condenser change for now, till I can confer with Jake on Friday, from piloting last night though my butt says it is on the nut now or quite close to it.

P.S. I am going to put a timing light on it today in order to see where it is set now, strictly for reference and drill.


Happy Thanksgiblets to you and ALL (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/burnout.gif)
