Hello All, This weekend sees the first Hillclimb at Doune for my recently acquired TR7. The suspension has been sorted plus a few little other mods, but I would like to try to advance the timing a little so I guess TR7 owners know the problem. I understand that a 7/16" spanner can be modified to do the job, does anyone have a sketch or a photograph of what is required. Thanks for any assistance. Cliff
