ideally i'd rather go electric ignition. how far off can it throw the timing or is it random?

pretty random..

 

just did my timing yesterday, in the middle of a rebuild so yesterday was engine set up.

 

set revs to 4000 rpm, set timing gun to 30 degrees...adjust timing...

 

sounds lovely :)

Its really getting me down at the moment, I just feel like selling the bloody thing!
