Ignition 11cv

Roland07 · 29-09-2015 06:32:49

Hi
I'm from Poland i have 11cv 1950 year. I have problem with adjusting ignition exactly how is angle ignition from upper turning point (top point)?

Ar eyou talking about adjusting your distributor for ignition timing?

Adjusting ignition angle must be done using the Citroën procedure.

Breakers opening (spark) must be adjusted by turning the distributor in such a way that the two holes, in the flywheel, and in the gear box case are in correspondance. Seee pict.

If I'm not wrong the resulting ignition angle is 12 degrees before TDC.

12 degrees for 11D, 8 degrees for Perfo, isn't it Henri ?

Roland07 may have a Perfo, while his 11cv is 1950' born, doesn't he ? wink

It is actually 12° for both the Perfo and the D,but when you put the Pin "Pige" in the hole, it will be at 8° on a Perfo so you must advance it slightly(counter-clockwise)to get to 12°. When you put the Pin in the hole on the D it is already at 12° so no additional adjustment is needed.
Put the Pin "Pige" in when the rotor is aimed at number 1 in the distributor (first cylinder in front of the car.
Yes, 12° for the D and 8° for the Perfo.
Don't forget to to remove the pin "pige" after you set the distributor!

Very thanks.
When I put the pin then you have to be position a ignition spark? Whether it is the upper turning point?
I have a motor on the plate number and designation DE.
Somehow I try to paste pictures car of how I succeed.
My max speed is 100km/h model B11 Normal traction Avant. 1950 y.

TA from the beginning in Poland. I think the rogue communist security services ridden to 1960. Next time go to civilians normal people smile

Nice car!
Put the pin in.
the rotor should be aiming approximately at the number one (front) cylinder spark plug wire position.
Loosen the bracket holding the distributor and attach a test light to the wire going into the distributor and to ground. turn the distributor slowly until the light just goes on (points opening) and you are now at 8° for a Perfo or 12° for a D. I think yu have a perfo, so just turn the distributor a tiny bit more counter-clockwise to approximate 12°.
DON'T FORGET TO REMOVE THE PIN!!!
