Tom2000 Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 Hi all,Car is out of the garage and has had all the ignition reset for emissions unfortunately the is pinking when hot and at high revs/speeds.Am I right in thinking its just a case of taking her for a drive and regarding he ignition to remove pinking by turning the dizzy to the left a tad?It's ridiculous quite how easily I forget this stuff now a days!Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HMaze Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 Rotation of the distributor finger is ccw (Counter clock wise).So turning the distributor body clock wise advances the timing, turning counter clock wise retards the timing.Cheers,Harry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ludwig Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 I've been using Shell V Power Nitro+ which has enabled me to set the timing as per the handbook. The car runs beautifully on the stuff, can't praise it enough! Just a thought,Alex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uksnatcher Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 Yup.... some fresh Shell V-Power 99 octaine and a squirt of Castrol Valvemaster+ livens things up (after using 97 ron petrol) and eliminates pinking for me too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
