Which way do you turn the stater to advance timing? 1980 Liquifire

opposite the way the engine turns. I don't want to be mean but i can't belive anybody should have to ask this.

Turn it 6 degrees counter clockwise. Use a timing gauge to help with this. You can get it close by eyeballing it, but it may not run right.

Here is a few timing tips. Advancing the timing gives the sled more torque out of the hole and less power on top. Retarding it does the opposite. Advancing also raises the sleds shift RPM. Retarding , the opposite. The same goes for compression. More compression, more torque down low and less peak power. Lower compression the opposite. If the motor detonates when timing is advanced you lose power and could burn it down. Liquifire stators do not really have that much adjustment in them. Moving the trigger ring will not make that much of a difference unless the motor detonates. Peter
