TP 2.6 Lt, Carbie, GLX 5 Speed Wagon.

This may be an odd question, however. About the timing marks on the engine [ 10 BTDC - T - ATDC 10]. I know that T is centre, ATDC is advanced. So my setting sould be about 13 . Is this to the Left of [10 BTDC] or more to the centre, being T.

Thanks

Gazza,

Errr... After TDC (ATDC) is retarded, not advanced ;-)

13 degrees would, ergo, be to the left of the 10deg BTDC mark.

Cheers,
Mattt.

buffy here standing from the passengers side the belt pully rotates clockwise

the TDC comes before 13 from passengers side at that position
