The Carb Shop in California used to make a big deal of the rotor phasing on HEIs being “corrected” when they built them.I guess this was a big selling point to the potential buyer. It does make a difference if it’s off, however in my experience the phasing right from the factory was just fine.
What I should have explained better in my earlier post was how the phasing should be to begin with. If anyone wants that done I’ll be glad to lay it out for everyone, if not I’ll save the bandwidth and not bore everyone with the details.
If I were to guess, I’d say the OP hasn’t really changed anything and is using the vac advance. With that said he’s likely got a bad cap. When I say bad cap I mean I’ve had lots of trouble with Standard Ignition products lately since they bought 5 -6 other competitors out. Modules being the biggest issue followed very closely by caps next. The Ford distributor caps are the very worst issue wise.
But that’s a separate post. Back to the OP issue.
