Looking for some help setting up a vape ignition on vespa p2 completely kitted out.
On the vape kit I have there is a section with degrees marks no numbers where should I install it? What degree do I want it to fire BTDC?
Thanks

I don't know what the timing setting is for that engine but don't start with the marks. Start with finding TDC and following the timing instructions in the kit.

There is also a video on youtube that goes over it -- a bit too fast IMO but gives you the gist. If that is confusing, look for plenty of posts where people ask this same question.
