Thanks for the replies, folks. I always enjoy it when I get to benefit from
Team.Net ;-)
I should have mentioned in my original post that the car, "professionally"
restored in 2010, is fitted with a Mallory dual point distributor. Just the
basic points and condensor setup, no electronic fanciness.
Monday I plan to take my old Craftsman timing light down to the shop. There
have been occasions before where the fancy new electronic timing lights get
totally whacked out by the electrical noise generated by these old cars.
Sometimes you need period tools to work on period cars.
