It's been awhile now since I got my teener and I think I've begun to really figure this stuff out thanks to you 914World adicts. But, I do have a couple of inquisitions for the engine tweaker guru's...
1) What is the relationship (if there is one) between engine heat and timing? 2) What is the realtionship between A/F mixture and engine heat? 3) As oil temp goes up does oil pressure decrease? And finally...I finally got myself a real digital timing gun so I can truly check advance. I am running an 009 distro (I know Mallory or 050 would be better but no $ right now. I spent it all on my timing gun) and am trying to figure out just how bad it is. If someone else has a gun with adjustable advance would you be kind enough to tell me what your advance degrees are at; 1000 RPM 1500 RPM 2500 RPM Why do this? Because I don't think my distro is properly advancing and I need to see how far off it is. Hopefully this will help me find it's "happy place". |

im sure you can find an advance chart on samba or shoptalk forums.
the grey/grey mallory spring combo has a steep advance curve that is in by 2900 rpm IIRC for what its worth.... (comparison data?) |
