Re: dizzy timing
If you undo the adjustment bolt on the dizzy you can twist it to fine tune the timing. I think it needs to be firing 8 degrees before TDC on normal tick over. It cant be to far out or it would'nt start at all.
If you need any more info on setting up the timing try this site http://kick-fix.com/IGN_timing/8v-procedure.html its for vitaras but its basicly the same prcedure.
