      Hi. Can anyone tell me what is the recommended spark advance for an older TM engine (I think it is a K6) in degree or millimeters?

      I mean the factory setting and how much I can adjust it.

      Maybe it would be helpful to know the value for a newer TM engine if nobody knows the degrees for a K6.

      Thanks

      Hi Piniea,

      Not sure about TM K6, never heard of the designation. But the TM K8, K9, KZ10 all are set at 1.5/1.6mm  – .059″ – .062″
