Reply to "Idle adjustment DRLA 40s"

Question: where is the initial timing set? The advice is always to set the timing for 30- 32 degrees total advance-- but the quality of distributors varies wildly, and some of them end up at 8 -10 degrees advance at idle if you set to 30 deg at 3000 RPM.

That may be enough to give you a too-fast idle.
