THANK YOU IN ADVANCE!!!

- Fri Oct 19, 2012 2:54 pm #318214 the red mark is 16 degress btdc. you want to set it to the single white mark. there should be a single white mark, then three marks after with a red mark in the center of the three.

your car is your story, dont let someone else write the book.

He's dealing with cam timing not ignition.
