[TR] Was Shade Tree Timing, now Timing by the Tach

I always set the timing with the vernier at the center mark -- makes it
easier to keep track once I begin the 'on the road' adjustments.  Helpful
since once in awhile I have to adjust for a crappy tank of gas and want to
be able to get back to where I was w/o a lot of thinking.

OTOH -- I know some who like the vernier to be at the middle mark when the
engine is at TDC so they know what advance they have set at a glance.
