Ok, naive question time: why 12 degrees instead of the 8 specified in the manual?
And would it matter whether it's 8 or 12 if you have EFI (since you
tell it what the base timing is and the computer compensates)?
I've got low vacuum on our new engine so I'm suspecting a problem
with the ignition or a vac leak. With the computer disabled
to set timing, it runs like crap at 8 degrees BTDC. It has an
RV cam if that matters, and the timing chain is set to 0 (ie
not advanced 4).
thanks
