Hi to all
I am sure this has been covered to death over time, but could some one please
confirm a couple of details regarding ignition timing. What is the general
consensus on how much advance seems to be best, and from the TDC timing mark
on the pulley how many millimetres per degree (in other words what is the
circumference of the pulley divided by 360.
Although my car engine seems to like the present setting, when I checked the
setting it measures  at least one inch (25mm) advanced from TDC - I don't know
what this would be in degrees but I suspect this is a very advanced level?
Thanks
Tim Newton
