(score: 1): Author: EZambori@aol.com; Date: Mon, 6 May 1996 19:15:11 -0400; Two different springs are used so that the advance "curve" more closely resemles just that a curve. If two identical springs were used the curve would be linear. With two different springs, the curve; /html/mgs/1996-05/msg00266.html (8,346 bytes)

In fact, after a lighter spring is installed to bring in the advance quicker, the centrifugal system may begin to bounce at high rpm. The 'fix' for this is to put one; /html/mgs/1996-05/msg00280.html (9,119 bytes)
