ignition timing specs for 1.1 "GG" engine?

Post

Back to the top
I have a Haynes manual for the mk1 Golf but it only applies to big block petrol engines.
I'm looking for the ignition timing settings for my 1.1 "GG" code engine. Like how many degrees before TDC should it be set to and with vacuum hose attached or not.

And any other info that may be relevant.

Thanks :)

Haynes - idle speed vac disconnected 10 +/- 1 BTDC, Champion N7YCC 0.7-0.85mm or N7YC 0.7mm

Autodata- dwel angle 44-50 degrees, 10 BTDC @950rpm vac disconnected, 81 on 0.5-1.5 CO% at idle (says 1.0-0.5 but mis print?) plugs Bosch W7DC 0.7mm gap

Note when new would have been designed to run on 4-star petrol so the above will need super unleaded 97/98 octane.

1983 Mars Red 1.8 Golf GTI
1987 Alpine White 1.8 Clipper Cabriolet

The trouble with doing nothing is that you never know when you are finished.
