The bob-weights are a mechanical or centrifugal advance as opposed to a vacuum advance right? Before I read this, I found in the manual what the timing should be at higher RPM's and put my timing light on it. The timing advances correctly. Is this ok, or should I still be checking the weights and things? Bye the bye, after having adjusted the CO screw so much I was curious how it would start from cold iron (aluminum) after sitting all night. It was very hard starting even after only a few hours to cool down. It fired right up and idled very smoothly with no backfiring sneezes. For a second I thought Mike Cohee had left his car at my place. I have a few more adjustments I want to make but things are progressing so well that I think I'm going to put her on ramps today and do a total front-end inspection (again) and do some serious cleaning up there.
