Re: Could me engine timing be inaccurate

What’s your initial timing?
Does this mean, when I first started the engine, at idle, what was the timing?

Initially, my idle screw was not adjusted well and the idle was too high, and I did not yet have a tachometer. At idle, the timing was around 16 degrees, but I may not be remembering correctly.

Now that I have a tachometer, should I redo the process?
