Gary's question poses an interesting "contest type question". Since
contests are not allowed: let's all join in and try to discover the
answer to his A.T.D.C., B.T.D.C. ignition timing question. There will be
thoughts, there will be theories...but that's what makes it fun. Since
this isn't a contest; I will of course take part!


Just got my new motor running and what the manual is telling me is a bit
conflicting. I have a slightly modified 74 motor with all emission gear
removed. The manual is showing 4 degrees A.T.D.C., which goes against
anything I ever heard. It seems to like it around 8-10 degrees B.T.D.C.,
but
I haven't started tuning the carbs yet so not sure about actual running
circumstances (on the road). Can anyone fill me in on what they have
done in
similar circumstances?

Thanks
Gary R.
