Subject:1.9l Timing Setting?
From:Jay L Snyder
Date:Thu, 25 Jan 2001 09:31:45 -0500

The book says something like 4 degrees ATDC for my '85 1.9l Digijet.  It
sounds likes like some people are running much more advanced?  I am set at
about 2 ATDC.  The motor certainly seems like it likes more advance.  The
lower compression of this engine (as opposed to the 2.1l) might allow it.
Unlike the 2.1l, the 1.9l distributor has both vacuum advance and retard
built in.  What's everyone setting their timing at?  (Digijets only need
apply!)
