Phlebmaster Posted January 20, 2009 Report Share Posted January 20, 2009 (edited) I just went out and tried this. It works great! Thanks Mike!!!!!!! My dual point dist is now a single until I put in the remote box dizzy I have. :D I am at work...so I timed it by ear and will check with a light later. The advance points are the top set in this picture: Run a wire from the neg side of the coil to this advance terminal. This will eliminate the other set of points and all the carb and tranny switches. Take the vacuum advance hose off the carb and suck on the end. With the cap off you should observe the points plate and rotor turn counter clockwise. Put your tongue over the pipe end and observe that the rotor stays advanced till you let go. Re-connect vacuum line to carb. This tests the vacuum advance canister on the side of the carb and also the hose for leaks. Start engine and idle. Pull vacuum advance hose off distributor and check that there is no vacuum. Re-connect hose. Get timing light and set base or static timing for ... whatever 10 degrees BTDC??? Increase idle to 1,500, timing should advance to over 20 degrees. Edited January 20, 2009 by Phlebmaster Quote Link to comment
