The ones the guy in Alabama had converted were fixed advance at 28 degrees
I have a Saito FG-20 gas engine converted to a CHXL ignition and it has the standard advance. I cannot see anything wrong with the way it runs on GAS.
It runs the same as my other one running the Saito ignition.
The FG-20 engine...are you using gas? I asume you are. My question now is have you ran the very same engine on methanol (alky) and if so how did it run in comparison with gas. Also did you see if you really needed a lot of nitro in the glow fuel for power. This data helps us to see the total picture! Thanks w8ye for this data. Best Regards Capt,n
TKG tried to run a FG-20 on glow. The carb didn't have enough flow capacity even with the tank up high
The intake manifold is smaller in dia on a FG-20 than a 125 and also the FG-20 has higher compression than a 125
