Hi David I can't believe you actually said that.... > Also take notice that on the distributer cap the cylinders are > not spaced equally apart. This has the effect of varying the advance > for certain cylinders. <SNIP> The cylinders are not equally apart on the distributOr (the O is there on purpose :) Sorry Dave) cap not because of that! The are spaced like that because the DeLorean engine if ODD FIRE. It means that the spaces (time) between firing the cylinders are not even. The advance is the SAME for all cylinders and if it was different like you say, the engine would shake itself to pieces. There would be different forces on different pistons. All cylinders need to run the same with the same amount of power and the same ign. advance. Tom Niemczewski jamesik@xxxxx VIN 6149 in Poland Save the dream so you can live the dream...
