Does anybody have the timing specs for a 3Y?


Cheers

Tony

hi tony

8degrees BTDC @850rpm
firing order 1342
pistons counted 1234 from radiator backwards
#1 on dizzy is at 9oclock position looking from front and goes clockwise

anything else ya need

Thanks for that

No more info required

I just swapped a 3y out of a van on LPG into the hilux and of course the timing ain't quite right now its back on petrol. The old motor dropped a big end and the 3y was the right price (FREE).

i would go for 10deg and run BP ultimate...... but you forgot to mention the vacume advance hose off and plugged and 0.016" points gap (better than the recomended 0.018" as it helps them rev a bit better)and if you want a really good fat spark use a 6volt coil and carry a couple sets of spare points and condensor
