Mine seemed to get the most power at about 26 btdc....and that is what it peaked out at using the millivolt glowplug method...
Mine would start and run anywhere from 18 degrees all the way up to 28 degrees...the sweet spot seemed at about 26....both cars...

I still don't understand... You are saying that the procedure used for both drip counts is precisely the same and that you just vary the drip count by changing the pressure of hand pumping? I thought that one needed to be very meticulous, operating careful adjustments by rotating the IP, in order to arrive at a precise drip count...
How is it possible that, following exactly the same procedure for both, the two drip counts are interchangeable without varying anything else? I don't get it... Can someone help me understand this concept, please?
