200-205 ma was just about optimal.

The factory manual tells you to adjust to the dip, then raise the current off-dip a bit. But that's nuts. It doesn't state any rationale for raising it. So just set it to the dip, period.
I always followed the proceedure in the service manual regarding raising the current to slightly above dip.
Of coarse, if the fly failed, they had one on the shelf, at your distributor.
I went strickly with Thordarson later in the game.
BTW, did all you seasoned techs, check the efficiency coil with every 6JE6 replacement. I'm guilty for not!
