Hi, do any of you good folk know what 17° equates to in millimetres, & if so, how is the calculation made?

by **Knowledge** » Tue Sep 15, 2015 9:20 pm

Are you asking how many millimetres around the outside of the flywheel, or how many millimetres of travel before TDC?

I know "Bert" and I think he's asking about the marks on the mag flange, back from TDC. Would the measurement be "as the crow flies" or curved around the housing......if you get my drift

Yeah, btdc. Going on the calculator it's 1.6mm ..... std' crank & rod (58/107).
Handy tool that ...... another one 'bookmarked'!
Thanks for sharing & thanks one & all for replies

Should have said I meant piston movement, which is what I'm after, as it's for setting the timing with a dial gauge as opposed to the 'positive stop' method prior to strobing :oops:
