ELECTRICAL . . . . . . AMPLIFIER MODULE 22. Before fitting the module, apply MS4 Silicone grease or equivalent heat - conducting compound to the amplifier module backplate, the seating face of the casting. IGNITION TIMING Adjust 1. It is essential that following procedures are adhered to. Inaccurate timing can lead to serious failure to comply with the emission regulations applying to in vehicle and is fitted with an air conditioning unit the compressor must be isolated. 2. On initial engine build, or if the distributor has been disturbed for any reason, the ignition timing 6" (This sequence is to give only an approximation in order that the engine may be started) ON NO IS CARRIED OUT. . .. . , . LUCAS CONSTANT ENERGY IGNITION SYSTEM PRELIMINARY CHECKS Inspect battcry cables and to ensure are and tight. Check battery state of charge if in doubt as to its condition. LT connections to ensure that they are clean and tight. Check the leads are corrcctly and not shorting to earth against any components. The wiring harness and individual cables PICK-UP AIR GAP Check air gap with a non-ferrous feeler gauge. NOTE: The gap is set initially at the factory and will only require adjusting if tampered with or when the pick-up module is replaced. TEST 1: Check HT Sparking Equipment required Calibrated Tachometer Stroboscopic lamp start er. Remove HT lead from distributor cover and hold approximately 6 in) from the engine block. Switch ignition 'on' and operate sparking occurs, proceed to I f no 3. Couple stroboscopic lamp to engine following the manufacturers instructions. 4. Disconnect vacuum pipes from the distributor. 5. Start engine, with no load and not exceeding 3,000 rpm, run engine until normal operating in the data section. 6. Idle speed for timing purposes must not exceed and this speed should bc achieved by removing a breather hose NOT BY ADJUSTING IDLE SETTING SCREWS. 7. With the distributor clamping bolt slackened turn distributor until the timing flash coincides with the of the torsional vibration damper as shown in t h e engine tuning section. Retighten the distributor clamping bolt securely. timing in t h e event that retightening has disturbed the distributor position. .:. , . ... ... . . . EA2262 9. Refit vacuum pipes. 10.
