Vernier Pulley Setting Up
Discussion
Afternoon all, looking for some advise with regard Vernier Pulleys. I have just re-built my 205 1.9 XU9JA engine following a session round Rockingham earlier in the year. Any way, I changed the rings and bearings etc... and decided that whilst it was in bits i'd buy myself a new cam so I brought myself a CatCam with a 282 duration. Once installed and the engine running it was a dog to drive at low RPM so a mate suggested a vernier to try and nail the timing to make it as good as it could be. So, spent £100 on a vernier, whipped it on (looks lovely) but i'm stuffed if I can get my head around the setting up of the damn thing, i've left it a 0 degrees for the time being with the ignition advanced by 30 degree as per the Peugeot book, what the bloody hell should I be looking for/trying to achieve with this thing, next to looking nice it's poxy useless to me at the moment. I understand the principle behind the manufacture of these, adjustable timing at both ends of the cam but I can't find anything to suggest that I should have it 3 degrees advanced for better mid range power for instance...
HELP PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!
