    Default Length of throttle link Johnson 55 1978 (55EL78S)

    Hello,The throttle link between the ignition advance mechanism and throttle cam has been adjusted. Anybody knows how to adjust it to the proper (original) length?Is there also anybody who knows what the ignition timing should be at idle speed (running engine)?Thanks,
