[T2] Timing question (1600cc)

Actually it depends on the distributor. On older engines, number three had a 
different firing point, in an attempt to make that cylinder run cooler. A 
more accurate way of saying it would be: When number one is at TDC and 
number three is at over lap! TDC and over lap are cam timing terms not 
ignition timing.
Of course these are all, "OLD FART MECHANIC" terms, as my boys say!
