Dolomite Sprint Timing settings

[9884booth]

Any idea what the settings are for a Sprint set up to run on unleaded Petrol? I want to use a strobe to set it up when servicing

Best way is by trail & error. Check ignition; plugs & points & mixture as normal. Set it up to the book figure retarded by a degree or so. Test drive it & find a long hill where you can get WOT, does it pink? yes retard ignition a tad more. No? then try advancing it a degree or so & then repeat. You may find to get reasonable level of performance you advance to the point where it keeps pinking, in which case then try Super unleaded.
The original timing marks may be 1. inaccurate 2. of little relevance because they'll be for 98RON leaded & 3. It will have carboned up so individually maybe different.
