Just a little question or two

Post by First-Car as Marina » Wed Aug 12, 2015 12:06 am

Hi everyone,

Reading through the Haynes manual today looking at timing, dwell angle, etc and I was wondering if you can answer some questions I've had for quite a while that I was reminded of today.

Basically, when looking at the specs, there are two different ones; one for a HC engine and one for a LC engine. My question is what one applies to my engine (1275cc), what are the differences and how can I tell what mine is??? Any other info you may have is always welcomed.

Many thanks,

Alex

iirc the engine code (or possibly chassis code) has a letter that identifies. Pretty sure was discussed on an earlier thread...
