    What is a good initial timing to set? (5-8 degrees BTDC)?
    At what RPM range should full advance be kicking in? (2500 rpms)?
    Thanks guys.

    2000i ignition. I'm programming it myself with computer software.
    Compression 8.5:1
    What is the reason for 3 dead revs at startup?
    Thanks.
