Hi to all I am sure this has been covered to death over time, but could some one please confirm a couple of details regarding ignition timing. What is the general consensus on how much advance seems

Please don't take this as gospel, but just another data point: with an engine of this vintage, provided the vacuum and centrifugal advances are working, the correct timing is the point at which you c

Although many people use this method I have a good publication from Repco, of Repco Brabham fame, which suggests that this is not too wise as the over advance may not be apparent and can cause cranks

While the book says 5 Degrees BTC, what you are really shooting for is proper full advance. With a 45 year old distributor you are likely dealing with an advance mechanism that is not working to ori

OK, how do you make sure that the vacuum and centrifugal advance are working correctly? Also, how much "play" is acceptable in a distributor drive shaft? These are questions that have been on my mind

re: Get an advance meter (a timing light with the ability to dial-in any advance value). Then check total advance against the book (there might be some intermediate values you can check but I'm too

To see if they're working at all, you can use a timing light. Without the vacuum advance connected, see if you're getting advance with increasing RPMs (centrifugal). Then, with a hand vacuum pump + t

Hi Bob, The vacuum advance comes from a "ported vacuum" source. This means that the vacuum takeoff point on the carb is slightly downstream (outboard) of the throttle butterfly. There is no vacuum on
