Most likely it is a mechanical advance only since I do not see a vacuum. Do you have any more details of the distributor you can share such as model number?

It's a Bosch 009 clone with a Hot Spark module.

Mechanical only.

Hmm... the engine is running pretty good, decent acceleration, no stuttering or dead spots.

I'm going to combine this thread with another that I just started and will hopefully come up with a carb solution.


Thanks for the input!
