I forget which direction, but moving them to one side is supposed to 
make thing smoother, but with a stock engine its negligible.

 I other question. On the trigger points , They are Bosch yet when I removed

them to lube the cam they ride on I noticed that I could slide the trigger 
assembly side to side a bit before I had the 2 screws tight . I remembered 
this when I got them and never paid any attention to the older sets at that 
time. I didn't measure how much they could be slide guessing at most 1/16" 
either way . I moved them CCW since the dist turns CW with the thought that 
they would function a bit more advanced .I do recall setting them the same 
way when I got them .

 Has anyone noticed this ? Is it possible in doing this it alters the 
trigger timing enough to cause the no load idle issue I have? I realize the 
base timing alone will alter the trigger timing . It's not that the 2 holes 
on the trigger set are slotted just a bit larger that the 2 screws which 
secure it.
