Hi again
It is (or should be) well known that the earlier Ruby handbooks erroneously still gave the timing settings as for the earlier Manual distributor models, i.e. 1 1/4 to 2 (one and a quarter to two) inches which corresponds to 14 to 23 degrees. The manual models were set at full advance.
The later versions of the Ruby handbook called for 1/2 (half) an inch, which corresponds to 5.5 degrees static advance.
Sorry Rekkers, I have to take issue with your recommendation !
