Hahaha! I wanna know that, too! I knew I wasn't completely out in left field. I looked today and saw that hole on the driver side and knew I'd seen it before.

In the tune up section of the FSM, it only mentions 450-500 rpm for idle speed. I would use that for timing as well. I can't find anything else about it in the manual.

Be sure to set your Octane Selector on the dizzy to Zero before setting timing with the ball bearing.
