I have some questions regards timing on my BJ7 with a strobe light:

1: RPM setting

2: Vacuum line connected or disconnected

3: How many degrees of dwell

4: Is the timing set BTDC or after TDC

Thanks, Ray
 
Hi Ray,
The BJ7 factory specs show;
Rpm = 600
Timing = 15 degrees BTDC
Dwell = 35 degrees at .014" to .016" point gap
Vacuum advance disconnected
Static timing should be 10 degrees BTDC
