The bolt holding the distributor was not as tight as it should have been, when I changed the initial advance one month ago. I put a timing light on the car, and the car has been degreed, and could no

OK I must wage a minor protest here... It was said that this was an electrical problem.. Even though I had thought of the distributor being lose, (as was the case once in my Imp), I dismissed it, bec

Rich, basics, basics, basics, or first impressions. While the distr. is part mechanical operation, the device is in the electrical circuit, say as opposed to the fuel circuit. You did good, with your

My thought exactly John. I think the real lesson here is what probably every mechanic knows all too well: namely, don't believe anything the owner tells you about the problem beyond the bare facts, a

I tend to agree with the good Doctor and Bob. All the systems performed as designed. The fact that you forgot to tighten the distributor nut showed that the problem was the at other end of the distri

The question (problem) is how many mechanics would have checked to see if the nut was tight? Sure didn't hear any very smart mechanics asking that. Larry Blackman

Larry this has been a great series of email questions and possible answers. It reminds me of when I had the same problem with my '66 GT 350. I had never touched the distributor. In 1970 I inherited i

There is one little question I still have and that is, why did the problem get steadily worse? You don't say explicitly Larry, but I presume when you timed it, it was 38 degrees advanced. The direct
