Ignition Timing Connector: Description and Operation

In-line Connector With Shorting Bar

The octane adjustment switch is used to retard the ignition timing three to four degrees.  
When the switch jumper is INSTALLED, the timing is normal.  With the jumper REMOVED, the timing is retarded.  This is done to allow for optimum 
spark advance for effective combustion of the air/fuel mixture.
