Help understanding my odd timing?!?!

Well, it turns to the left about a 1/2" and you can hear a spring move. It doesn't turn at all the other way.

One of the things the "mechanic" did is that he moved to hose on the carburetor for the advance to the "full vacuum manifold port" that I had it capped. (I have a Holley Street Avenger). He said I'd get more vacuum from there rather then leaving it at the vacuum advance port. So he then capped the vacuum advance port instead.

Is this correct?

Thanks!



well if it has full vac at idle then your advance is in from the second you start it. put the vac advance back where its supposed to be and see what happens...
