Just a little miffed...

IMO, you have a tuning issue.
What is your idle rpm? Which vacuum port is it plugged into? Manifold or ported? If it was hooked up "properly" ( properly meaning how the factory designed it and how I hook them up - not that there's not other ways that might work...) then you should have no advance from the vacuum pod at idle. But if it's idling at 800-900rpm, you may be into the vacuum advance and you need to cow down the idle and close the throttle blades a little.
