no idea where the timing is.

67dart273,

Like I said, I'm a bit of a newbie. Ok quick azimuth check here to make sure I'm goin in the right direction.

1) bump it over to 10-12 BTC
2) mark the dist at #1 so I have a reference point
3) pull the cap
But this is where I get lost.
What do you mean by..."Now RETARD the distributor. This is to "get the slack out" of the advance mechanism, etc."? I know rotating it while running will adv or retard it, but I dont understand what you mean by get the slack out. pls explain
thx
