<p>The ignition timing deal is more about creating hot spots when
the engine is running. Too much advance causes pre-ignition which
can cause stuff to get hot enough to ignite the fuel. One source
of that could be a piece of the head gasket protruding into the
combustion chamber.</p>

Same problem here with the TR3 motor in the Morgan, but not the
TR3. I don’t see how ignition timing could affect it as it is
turned off. I used to hear it was due to carbon buildup
continuing to ignite fuel, but that doesn’t fly for a fresh
engine.

<div>I’m going to lean the mixture a little and see if that makes
any difference. Till then, Dave’s method of easing the clutch
out seems to be the accepted workaround. </div>
