So I would set at .020, and that way, after the initial wear. My sister would not get stranded while I was not available (SEAsia duty).</font></div><div dir="auto"><font face="sans-serif"><br></font></div><div dir="auto"><font face="sans-serif">However the final advance adjustment was turning the Lucas Wheel Advance adjustment 1/2 turn at a time till the top speed was 87mph.
