SJ410 ignition timing marks

Hi all

Could someone please confirm that the timing mark on the 410 is the right angled point on the flywheel housing. I can't see any lines marked on the housing so assume it must be the point of the triangle lines up with 10 degree btc.

also being a mechanical advance unit assume I should put a few drops of engine oil down holes in distributor onto springs every so often. Is this correct.

Thanks
Steve

Yes that's correct with the marks :thumbup:

I've never really bothered with dribbling a bit of oil down onto the springs but doubt it would hurt :thumbup:

Thanks for the confirmation.

Timing was slightly out, now running like a sowing machine.
