Bud, I think you got that backwards.  Its 10 BTDC static and 4 ATDC with the
vacuum retard connected at idle.  Those of us who have abandon vacuum retard
use 10-12 for both.

Long time since we communicated.  Happy Holidays.

4 degrees ATDC is the static timing (engine not running) setting.  With a
timing light (engine running) most (not all) people set it around 10-12
degrees
BTDC, which is "closer to you."  Your car knows best.
