I did pick up one of those DTI TECH-TACH TT-20K Tachometer. Do I set it at 360 or 180 degrees for the GY6 engine? I think 180 because it fires on every up stroke correct? One spark is wasted on the exhaust - keeps it simple because they are using a magneto ignition that is driven directly off of the crankshaft. It is just the simplest way to get the job done. Right?

One thing that drives me crazy is that trying to set the idle is almost impossible. I go from too fast to lugging with maybe a 1/32 turn of the screw. Why is it so sensitive?
