Re: total mechanical advance adjustment?

[sky62 <sky62@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Derrick, one way you can check the total advance is the following  
method, as described by Don D.
I've saved a lot of his posts. they come in handy!

"timing. if you dont have an advance  light measure a piece of paper  
2.21" long and cut it that length. lay it on TDC notch on the pulley  
and mark the other end forward with White  paint (typo corrctor works  
wonderful) That is 32 /34 degrees. It will give you a reference point  
to work from with a non advance timing light. You set it to that mark  
at 3000 RPM. Probably should not run the vaccum advance with a hot cam."
