to all who know:

I fly a 1986-13B equipped with a 1985 Mazda breakerless distributor,
Racing Beat Red Hot ignition wires with sparkplug metal shields,
standard Mazda sparkplugs and NAPA/UAP transistor ignition coils.

I use a common ordinary timing light to set the distributor timing by
reading the two notches on the e-shaft pulley. Mazda says that those two
notches are set 15 degrees apart on the pulley. But my timing light
tells me that those two notches are about 30 degrees apart. Why is that?
Can anyone explain this difference to me?
