Re: Increasing top speed

Thanks guys. It was confusing since the instructions probably intend it to be installed on a two-stroke, though where you would find an 8 cylinder two-stroke I don't know!

I set the angle to 90 degrees which is 4 sparks per revolution (8 sparks per 2 revolutions i.e. four stroke cycle) and that makes sense to me now.

Tickover is a smooth 500 rpm and 2000 rpm is faster than I've previously spun it but still seems good.

Hopefully I'll feel more confident pushing on to 50mph next time out

Thanks
