alright guys i took my T/A in to class & had my teacher & class diagnose why my car doesnt jump like it's suppose to when i hit the gas..come to find out the vacuum advance canister connected to the distributor was no good..so My Dad & I got a new aftermarket vacuum advance that's adjustable...now my question is..how do I go about adjusting it? the directions says to advance the timing til i hear a "ping" or knock then turn it back..after that, it says using the allen wrench supplied, adjust the vacuum advance in 2 turn increments until i hear a ping then turn it back slightly...has anybody come across this be4?? I can tell I didnt adjust it right because it feels like the timing is advanced..but how do I go about doing it? because we also adjusted the idle too on the carb..any help would be very much appreciated thnx - Robert.
