    i am having a issue with setting timing on crank trigger , i have set crank trigger to 34 degree and when i check with timing light it is about 29 degrees so i moved crank trigger a little and still does not show correct also when i use the crossover the generator timing does not show correct neither. is there some programming in the grid causing this issue as i have tried setting max timing from 34 to 40 degree and still does not alter timing. i am new to the power grid as this is new setup

    First set the timing with the crossover switch on mag and turn the mag so it is on 34*. Then turn the crossover switch to crank trigger and set it to 34* reading with the timing light regardless of what you think the stationary timing is. What you see with the timing light is the correct timing.

    i have tried to move the mag and somehow it will not allow me to go over 29 degrees even thought i advanced the position of the gernerator. that is why i am wondering if i have something set in the grid stopping me

    What is the blue wire from the Grid hooked up to and what timing light are you using?
