| To achieve efficient and economical engine operation, the ignition |
| system must be timed in accordance with the manufacturer's |
| specifications. Since ignition timing is also affected by the |
| dwell angle, it is necessary to use a dwell meter to set the dwell |
| angle to the manufacturer's specification before using the timing |
| light to time the engine. |
| |
| |
| The information in this manual will serve as a general guide for |
| engine timing. |
| |
| CONSULT THE OWNER'S MANUAL OF THE VEHICLE BEING TESTED |
| FOR SPECIFIC INFORMATION ON DWELL ANGLE AND ENGINE TIMING. |
