i would leave it at 0,0 until you get a chance to tune it to where you make the most power. If you set to far advanced or retarded you could lose power or damage your motor. I know that doesnt help you but just something to consider.\ Good luck.

Advancing moves the powerband lower, retarding moves the powerband higher. Tell him to try -3 and +3.

Don't forget to reset ignition timing! If naturally aspirated use 18 btdc!
