I would like to know how people are setting the timing (and how much)
on the TR3 and 4 motors with a Pertronix. Going by the book, timing
is set statically at 4 degrees before TDC using the TDC mark on the
pulley and adding 4 degrees at the distributor. Further refinement to
be determined by road test. Again, by the book, use of a timing
light is not recommended.
I have a timing light that reads advance and retard which is
necessary since there are not degree markings on the pulley.
So, with a stock TR4, how many degrees advanced at what rpm?
Thanks,
Allen
