1. I Don't Trust Static Timing Anymore (score: 1): Author: Bob MGT <BobMGT@aol.com>; Date: Sun, 12 Apr 1998 23:20:57 EDT; I had been having some pinging lately on my '71 MGB. A quick check of the static timing showed 7 deg BTDC which is retarded compared to the book spec of 10 deg (for the 18GK engine). I tried several; /html/mgs/1998-04/msg00511.html (7,901 bytes)

Obviously the dynamic setting is what matters, but it all should be the same. For; /html/mgs/1998-04/msg00515.html (8,572 bytes)

The thick advance spring had stretched to the point that it wasn't effective at all. PaulH.; /html/mgs/1998-04/msg00536.html (8,798 bytes)

Note that where the manufacturer suggests might not be the most optimal for your situation, but that is true for both static and dynamic timing.

6. Re: I Don't Trust Static Timing Anymore (score: 1): Author: Bob MGT <BobMGT@aol.com>; Date: Tue, 14 Apr 1998 00:18:02 EDT; OK, I'll buy that. So don't trust static timing with an OLD distributor. Now if I'm getting too much advance too soon, maybe I'm not getting enough at really high rpm. I think I'll try a new set of s; /html/mgs/1998-04/msg00578.html (7,830 bytes)

It may not be in the owners manual, but it is availible. ma; /html/mgs/1998-04/msg00623.html (9,876 bytes)

Re: I Don't Trust Static Timing Anymore (score: 1): Author: Charles & Peggy Robinson <ccrobins@ktc.com>; Date: Tue, 14 Apr 1998 21:58:37 -0700; SNIP Can't agree, Trevor; One has to remember that the manuals don't cover all permutations of the cars.

Re: I Don't Trust Static Timing Anymore (score: 1): Author: Charles & Peggy Robinson <ccrobins@ktc.com>; Date: Tue, 14 Apr 1998 22:11:57 -0700; SNIP Errr, if there were _no_ springs, the total advance would be the same as with good ones installed, if you rev it high enough. IOW, the springs control when full advance ocurrs, not how much full; /html/mgs/1998-04/msg00657.html (7,891 bytes)
