360 timing issues

You can set it up at 10 and it will be perfectly happy there for a baseline.

like AJ said everything to the left of 0 is advance and to the right of zero is retard. When you stab the distributor set the timing mark on the balancer at before 10. If it doesn’t run well there at idle you have a different issue.
