what do you guys generally time your distributors, with a 350 motor in a h... I set the initial timing at 16. then with the fly weights full open it got me 33 degrees. what do you think? also I am havng a prolem with an intermittant fly weight advancing? it has to e the spring as I built new studs on the weight plate and rebushed the weights. It worked like a champ on the ground but I think that the springs are shot, Who would you go to to get new springs and such

thanks for the advice in advance
Brandon

Well as for me , when i work on a dist i am doing it on a dist strobe . This way i can see what the advance is doing at differant RPM's and makeing changes is not guess work . Also setting up a dist . for a working tractor and pulling tractor are not the same . Now with out getting into the books to see what is suppose to do thru out it's operating range the 16 degrees is a bit much and the 33 degrees on the top is to much for a field tractor. You will find that they will have better bottom end at around 27-30 degrees .

boy you are lucky to have a sun distributor machine all I have is the snapon digital adv retard and rpm I knew the 16 was a bit much I think my goal will be about 25 total I was merely stating there appears to be a 17 degree difference thank you very much for the help I thought I would weigh the weights and match them too when I get some new springs

thanks Brandon
