what the hell? is the free floating vario ignition timing a figment then?

I guess it must be. There is no manual adjustment that I can figure.

When I looked at the static timing last time, the T mark was definitely off of the pointer while the cams were spot on. I was going to pull it off for a clean and lube ( i.e. the advancer mechanism) but forgot about in my haste to try firing up with saran wrap on the carbs.

I think when it got running, things started working as they should.
