Does anybody know the ignition advance information for the TR4A?
I know that stock static advance is 4 degrees BTDC, but what is the full
vacuum advance? What is the full mechanical advance?
Someone said to me that these engines can not tolerate all that much total
advance (I.E. less than 30 degrees). I would have expected that a total
advance in the mid-30's would have been about right!

Greetings... The vac advance unit should be marked 2-6-3. Advance starts
at 2in of hg, all in at 6 in of hg with 3 degrees advance at the dizzy-6 at
the crank. Not much. Centrifugal advance depends on what dizzy you've got.
