Is timing meant to be 4 or 8 degrees? (2l pinto) When I was asking about it before colin said 8, but the haynes says 4. Now I'm more inclined to beleive colin really lol but can anyone confirm that? Running unleaded with valvemaster.

Secondly, the markings on the crankshaft wheel don't seem to match up with what the haynes manual says either. I reckon I've worked it out though, is this right:



Little hard to see in this pic, but this is what I reckoned it should be set at when I did it before, but if I'm right now, it looks like I marked 2 degrees!:



Thirdly, on the mixture screw, is turning it in making it richer or leaner? I've got so many various things on the procedure for mixture but I dont seem to have found anything that says which way is which!
