 Hi, I have read a lot about ignition timing on these boards and most people are quoting figures of 8 or 12 degrees BTDC.

I checked my vehicle (JH5 #18952 with twin Dellortos) with a strobe and it was showing 12 degrees BTDC and it runs very badly. A local mechanic told me that he thought the timing for my specific chassis number should actually be 2 degrees BTDC - a HUGE difference.

Can anyone confirm this?

Many thanks

Dan
