[Tigers] Timing deviates - advice needed

[Gary Winblad]

It sounds like John has the answer (from experience).. but wait a minute,
what is all that fuzz under the rubbing block on your points??
That doesn't look good to me, though I have never had an aftermarket
dizzy like that.  If the fuzz bunches up....  With points, a little cam grease
every tune up used to work fine.  Anything between the cam and rubbing
block WILL drastically affect the timing.

Once again, thanks all, for your responses.
Per Mayf's suggestion, relaying here a few details:
Model: Mallory Dual Point YC-449-HP
Motor: 302 CID. Year unknown. Stock internals.
Other: Moves smoothly to about 15 degrees advance, and 10 degrees retard. No
stickiness.
New points, rotor, coil, wires about 2500 miles ago.
A couple folks asked for pics: http://www.flickr.com/photos/tigerv8
The suggestion was made of installing a substitute, to prove/disprove
distributor issue. No many cats in these parts though (St. Albert, Alberta,
Canada).
