Is this correct? Should the impulse-coupled mag be set at 0 degrees? Does it then advance 25 degrees as the RPM comes up?<< No, set the mags after the impulse has been tripped. The impulse delays or retards the spark only when starting. After the rpms come up to over approximately 300 then the impulse is out of the picture and you get normal timing.
