Re: <VV> Ignition combos



Jeff,

You may have the distributor shaft misaligned by one tooth. I've run

into this before with points and electronic ignition. I find it works best

with the engine TDC number one firing the rotor should point directly

to the rear of the engine compartment. Then reset your timing advance.

<< I've noticed that when I inspected the inside of the dist, cap that

there is definate evidence that the arc from the rotor is firing on the very

lead edges of the pins. The timing is 6 inital,10 mechanical and the vaccum

is stopped 15.

Has any one else experienced any obvious "advanced arcing" like this or used

the combination like this? I would appreciate any comments.

Thanks,
