Default RE: DL50 Ignition timing setting guide.


ORIGINAL: pe reivers

You need at least a degree wheel, and then set the timing at 28° before top dead center.
Without tools, set the sensor so you have equal correction travel either side, and hope for the best.
Hey "pe."

Sorry if I'm asking a dumb question, but how far can the timing actually be off (and how will it affect the way the engine runs) if you just center the hall sensor fron side-to-side on its mounting bolts? I mean, the flywheel (with magnet) is keyed, so you can't mess that up, and there isn't much free play (adjustment) on the hall sensor either way. Do tell.

And thanks!
