This newbie is trying to learn...and a bit confused!
I'm trying to investigate/set the timing on my 400. Interested in maybe an initial timing of 8ish, total around 36.
Using an adjustable advance timing light, here's what I get: 2300rpm: Setting the light to 50 puts the line at 0 Idle rpm: Setting the light at 18 puts the line to 0
Setting the light to 0 puts the line to 12.
Can anyone give me some instruction please? Much appreciated!!
