Thanks for all the responses. Builder wants timing set at 35 degrees at 4,000 rpm. I do not know what that translates at startup.

Right now I have the rotor button at #1 and the balancer at 0. If I rotate the crank once, the rotor button goes to #6. Rotate twice and I am back to 1.

Is it likely that once I set at 35 degrees at 4,000 rpm that the idle will smooth out? Sorry for so many questions as I am learning here.

Phil
