Re: [Honda-C70] Basic Ignition timing question?

 

That is correct. Just turn the engine till it looks as if the points are full open
and check the gap. You can see the points open as you slowly turn the
engine over. Then you adjust the basic engine timing to open the points at the
:F: mark.

If I'm reading the manual correctly, I'm setting a static timing for a new set of points.

I want the points gap set first, then I rotate the timing plate until the points start to open (and turn out the light on the continuity tester) at the F mark?
