Re: Unidentified electronic timer
How did you set your initial engine timing?... Video shows advanced timing on that crank start with the crank handle kicking back.

Re: Unidentified electronic timer
Now that my age starts with 8, there seem to be more of those times when I don't understand what's going on. This is one of those times.

This is not what I have on my car but something that was included in a lot I bought on ebay. I have a bosch conversion from Snyders on my car with pertronix from Lang's .

That looks like the Tru-Fire ignition without the center piece that mounts on the cam shaft.
