Abstract
To provide for fine adjustment of the timing of operation of the ignition breaker switches, the breaker plate is connected by an adjustable link to a vacuum ignition control diaphragm, the link being a two-element unit, one element having a right-hand thread at the end and the other a left-hand thread, coupled by a coupling element rotatable in both said right and left-hand threads to shorten or lengthen the overall length of the link. The coupling element is externally accessible, for example by means of an additional transmission wheel or gear.
