up to 20°:
- 0–2000 rpm — retarded for improved idle and cylinder scavenging
- 2000–4700 rpm — advanced for increased torque
Torque, also called moment or moment of force , is the tendency of a force to rotate an object about an axis, fulcrum, or pivot. Just as a force is a push or a pull, a torque can be thought of as a twist....
