Does anybody know what the proper ignition timing for a 1967 Austin-Healey
3000 should be? The Bentley manual says "static - 6 degrees BTDC" and
"stroboscopic - 15 degrees BTDC @ 600 rpm." I assume by "stroboscopic"
they mean using a timing light and "static" means, well, static. The 15
degrees BTDC @ 600 rpm seems quite advanced, although the engine runs
OK and never pings.
Bonnet = hood
Boot = trunk
Hood = (convertible) top
Drophead = convertible (?)
Stroboscopic = using a timing light (?)
Any others for my "British to `Mercun" Dictionary?
Regards,
Bob
