Dyna ignition, where to set timing? was created by KenC
I just installed a Dyna electronic ignition on my 75 Z1 and I am curious where the indicator should be pointing. At Idle I am assuming it should be on the "F" mark? Then move to the advance mark at higher RPM's? Is this correct?
Thanks,
Ken

Ken, did you use the original Z1B coils? There is something about they must be more than 2.5 ohms or something like that, I was wondering how your coils measured up? I never know where you measure and is the resistor in the spark-plug cap, counted in the measurement?
Regardz.
