The static ignition timing point (S = 9 BI’DC) remains unaltered. -2- ( lj Kenntnis genommen – Pris connaissance – Noted – Tornado nota – Preso conoscenza Ablage – Archives – File โ€ข Archive ( ,I ( L 4/72 (041 M)e – 2 – Shortly after the installation of the new automatic timing mechanism the dw011 ang0e of the contact-breaker was also reduced from 110 to 78; this prevents overheating of the ignition coils of fully suppressed engines when driven extremely hard.
