Re: Where to time engine for initial start

[Paul L <pjlenn@xxxxxxxxx>]

That should get it to fire up.  Have your timing light hooked up and
ready to go.  Hopefully you've got someone there to assist.  Somewhere
around 30-34 degrees @ 2000 rpm should be good for the break-in. Just
be sure not to let it idle for any period of time.   If I'm talking
through my hat hopefully someone will pitch in to set me straight.
