Having today fitted my reconditioned dizzy I set the dwell angle and timing as per the book. ie rpm to 600 - 650 dwell angle 26 - 28. This all works well until I rev the engine. When it settles to idle again the dwell angle has changed. It takes quite a few turns of the adjuster to bring it back into limits and when I rev it again, after settling to idle the dwell has changed again. For example, I set the dwell, rev the engine, allow it to settle and the dwell is 33. Adjust it back to limits rev it again, let it settle and the dwell is 18. Adjust it back in.....etc etc. Each time the adjuster requires a few turns before anything happens. Any ideas?
cheers
