How do you set the timing advance for an 050 distributor?
I know this topic has been covered a few times but after reading through the posts, I can't fathom the exact set up required for my car. I have a 1967 912 engine with Solex carbs and an 050 brazilian distributor. In my workshop manual it suggests marking the crankshaft pulley 3.8mm to the right of O...
