I have my initial timing set to 25 and my total timing set to 35. I'm only getting about 10 1/2 timing from my mechanical. Should I go buy new springs and weights or will this be okay for now? I'm still getting a little bog only when I get on it hard may need to adjust the Acc. Pump.

Re: Dizzy

25 initial is WAY too much. 8-10 is plenty. You want to be all in around 2800-3000 rpm @ 32-34 total.

Re: Dizzy

Well, I guess I need to buy new dizzy then. If I have it at 8-10 I will bog really bad. I would only get about 18 to 20 total timing then.
