Bloody Germans! and who said they were a consistent quality manufacturer, oh yes I forgot they have also dumbed down to an Asian pricing model. Oh well I will just have to stick to my reliable restored Lucas units. :-)
Hedd, I think the hand book probably simply tries to simplify things for the inexperienced new car owner rather than what will make the car perform at its best. As we know the factory settings are a conservative safe setting which will produce performance commensurate with expectations of the period. Personally I would not recommend anyone runs around with their car at maximum advance all the time, not unless that max advance is well below the optimum setting.
