What am i missing here and how do I address this? Is this done with the allen wrench inside the vacuum advance canister?
Thank you in advance.

Thank you Will E. I was having trouble wrapping my head around this. Much appreciated.will e wrote: ↑Wed Feb 21, 2024 5:57 pm Your distributor is working perfectly. The timing should increase at idle with the vacuum connected to manifold vacuum. The vacuum advance also operates at cruise and adds to the centrifugal advance. As soon as a load is placed on the engine the manifold vacuum will drop to a level below where the vacuum advance module activates. It happens very quickly.
Now, how much advance and at what vacuum will depend on the distributor and the advance cannister. Some are adjustable with an allen wrench. This typically adjust the amount of vacuum advance.
Thank you. Good to know.Srdayflyer wrote: ↑Wed Feb 21, 2024 7:42 pm at idle the timing with vacuum should be 15 degrees, at 2000 rpm timing runs about 20-25 degrees, and at WOT wide open throttle timing runs 32-35 degrees just and fyi
The solenoid is an anti-diesel device, not part of the AC system.Srdayflyer wrote: ↑Wed Feb 21, 2024 9:41 pm i run mine at 700 +- 50 a/c solenoid should kick it up 100 when the a/c is on
