LD340 Can’t Get The Carb Base To Seal
Ok, I’ve installed a new thick carb gasket and studs, re-routed the PCV plumbing to the carb base and replaced the plastic fuel filter with a metal one, I can say that it runs MUCH better, it still isn’t quite right yet, but it is better.
After putting these parts on, I tried to dial the timing in and discovered that I’m getting no advance from the distributor, I have it set at 10 degrees BTC at idle and it stays at 10 degrees when increasing the engine speed. I’m using and old MOPAR Prestolite tach drive distributor that came with the engine and am using a stock coil and wires and one of those blue hi rev ignition modules.
I’m going to replace the distributor with something newer / better, what’s a decent distributor to get for a car that’s just going to be street driven?
