Dave's right on the money, but I'll add that US models generally have a timing spec like 4 ATDC. This is to be measured only with the vacuum retard connected and operating. If you disconnect it, you

I would like to hear where you owners have your timing set for a stock T/R 3 with electronic ignition and a stock coil, what setting seems to make your car operate at it's best. Many thanks "FT"

Hi Fred, Casper was set at 10 btdc deg @ 1000 rpm, Pertronix Ignitor (not sure if that qualifies as an electronic ignition) and Lucas Coil. -- Bill Pugh 1957 TR-3 aka Casper TS16765L

You may have your distributor 180 degrees out - try putting the piston for pot number 4 at TDC with both its valves closed and check which pot the distributor arm is trying to send the spark to as w

Adjusting the distributor to give max RPM then backing off 100 RPM is one way. Another method found in some manuals is to advance timing until it does not "pink" when giving full throttle in high gea

That's an old trick and is the way I've always done it. It seems to work fine for me. Has anyone on the list ever compared it with the timing light method to see if they agree? Sumner Weisman 62 TR3

Hi Bob, Are you still using the breaker points? If so the difference may be due to a slight wobble in the distributor shaft causing the points to open a little more (and concequently sooner) on one s

Listers, any recomendations on the best setting of the timing for a # 46000 series 59 T/R 3-A. Manual says 4 degrees BFTDC, but she seems to ping a little to much. Should i go higher BFTDC ???? Thank
