Today's project was to advance the timing 4 to 5 degree's. The first thing I did was slot the plate the wrong way  :dash2:.  Then I stop reading the "how to" and did it correctly. I now have adjustable - 5  to + 5 timing :yahoo: :yahoo:. Ready for good gas or a trip to Mexico....... I am going to replace the 2 Phillips head screws on the plate with Allen heads in the morning, makes it cleaner if I want to adjust it later :good: Then test ride up to the ski resort...
Ordered a digital volt meter off "flea bay". Be here in the next shipping container from China..... 10 -12 days ?
