When you rev the engine, the bob-weights advance the timing and you will see it move off the scale.. > The only thing that bugs me is the engine still "farts" or >pops. It doesn't do it often but it bugs me. I have to find that. > If you have removed the cat, you may find this. Alternatively, you may have your vac advance plumbed up wrong. Look at the vac diagram. You can check the vac advance shutoff solenoid is working by turning the ignition on, but not starting the engine. Put your hand on the solenoid and lift the throttle off the idlespeed control microswitch. You should feel the solenoid click. >Lastly, one more time: What brands of wires can I get that are the >right kind, that are PRE-MADE and have the proper boots on them? > My PRV guy swears by the original Bougicold leads that are still available from all the vendors - they're also pretty and red :-) We get them in new from Renault in black. They are still manufactured. Martin Yahoo!
