electronic ignition

[marco]

Hello all,

Just another tip for setting the ignition timing, either electronic or conventional:

Because in the Staghound you can't see the timing mark on the flywheel (it is below the starter motor also), a timing light can't be used.

I use a vacuum gauge instead.
After setting the idling rpm about correctly, connect the vacuum gauge to the inlet manifold.
Now turn the distributor so that the vacuum gauge gives its highest reading.
When the engine is in good condition, this reading should not be fluctuating.
