i had the car running well with no kickback or pinging at 8*advanced. that means i should be looking for a dist. with 26ish initial to get me up around the 34 mark where i should be... and all that with no vac advance ? and then add my vac on top of that to be up around 50something, hopefully.
upon driving the car with this dist... i step on the gas its like the car just has no go to it. it revs without any problem sitting in the driveway, but out on the street it just seems to die out and it has no power at all. am i on the right track with looking into the mechanical advance?
