Series 3 Dynamic timing specifications

To be honest, knowing those values won't make any noticeable difference. The standard dizzy has a set dwell angle of 45 degrees so everything about the timing is a bit of a compromise.

Except ...I have an electronic dizzy from 123 - so i'm looking for the values to be able to decide which one of the curves to use.
Has a direct result with engine timing and the whole HC emissions thing ..
 
There are 16 positions on 123 dizzy if it runs ok on a position turn it to the next and so on if it suddenly runs rough turn it back one..
Also put it TDC on number one and turn dizzy till little green light comes on...

I did have some info on my other puter, i think you can download from their site, if you start at 8 gives you opportunity for adjustment.
I know its a pain taking it out to remove allen cap, but gets easy after a while...

It's even easier for me ... my dizzy is 180deg rotated .. so it points away from Nr1, that allen cap is pointing towards the open space.
I am now wondering if getting the version with the bluetooth programing would help.. if of course we don't find a curve that fits ...
AND .. the whole could it be worn camshaft - if not an issue with the Britpart sprocket/chain/tensioner kit being a little out - timing - HC emissions
 
Have you got an original dizzy you could fit and make sure its timed properly ?
I think they are a Lucas D45 or the French one...
