Could someone please explain timing for me. I have heard some people talking about how they have taken theirs up to 12 or 14 from 10 but i dont know what any of that means, please specify.

Thanks for any help.

 

Just means it idles at a higher rpm...



Mine idles at around 8 ....... *shrug*

 

Thanks:

Is it very hard to change the timing?

How do you do it?

Thanks again for any help

 

Actually, timing is when the ignition/spark plug fires in relation to the piston position in it's stroke. 10* means that the spark plug fires 10* after the piston has reached top dead center and has started back down. I'm not totally sure how they measure the degree increments in relation to the piston, but I think it's by the crankshaft.
