SM Timing Question

Posted by Jon From NY on July 18, 2004 at 16:29:03 from (64.12.116.14):

Hi,I am trying to time my 53 super M with a neon light. I have a shop manual. As far as I can tell it only has one timing mark on the pulley not 2 as in manual.I put it at top dead center at idle and she is laboring and doesnt throttle back as good as it did before. So I read farther and I see I should advance it to 4.5 degrees at like 500 rs . How do you tell how far a degree is on the pulley. Am I right to advance it at idle. It has 4" fire crators and a 8060DC head I believe. I heard some where about a advance in the distributor when they put fire crators in I beleve the dealer rebuilt this motor or at least it has all IH parts in it so maybe they did work on that too. along with a 4 weight govener. Does anyone have any info for me? THANKS JON
