Re: RE: TR6 Misfire (here we go again!)

Hey All,

 I just wanted to thank everyone who has responded to this question.  I think I 
now understand the timing question, and what static timing is.  I static timed 
it to 12 degrees BTDC last night, just like the Bently say to do.  I didn't get 
a chance to run it yet.  I have a timing light so i can time the thing when it 
is running

 Also, as most of you can guess, Having only 15 miles on it since the rebuild I 
have yet to do thing one with the carbs.  They didn't even have enough oil in 
the dashpots!  I fixed that last night too.

 I put the question out there so i could see if I was missing anything.

 Oh ya, I haven't replaced the condensor yet!  Why you ask?  I don't know I 
have three new ones sitting in a box.  I'll do that when I get home today.

 I report on Tuesday the results.


 One last time, this is a 74 TR6.  The Dist only has a vacuum advance, no 
retard.  Should this be connected when I do the timing with the engine running.

Later,
JHD IV
