Ignition Timing (running)

Post by leobailey »

Does anyone happen to know what the maximum ignition advance is for a 1959 G3 in standard trim in dergrees?.

I'm running my G3 with PAZON Electronic Ignition and would like to check the running advance with my strobe light and timing disc.

I've looked through my manuals etc and can't find anywhere it states the Max advance in degrees, or what the typical advance would be at normal tick over.

Thanks

Hi

Page 28 of the workshop manual says its 34 degrees - is this what you were looking for?
