Title: found some more response from the motor: Post by: Jim Ratto on October 06, 2007, 22:51:18 pm Did some minor service stuff to the car today. Noticed throttle response had gotten a little lazy. Checked timing, wasn't advancing consistently. Further checking showed the little waxy pads under advance weights had worn away to nothing. The weights were sticky too. So anyway, I just locked the distributor, set it @ 30 deg and ran it. Big difference from idle on up. Nice to do something so easy and get a nice result.

Plug in a MSD start retard if you don't like it locked.

My ignition box isn't on the starter circuit (box and fuel pump is on separate switch) so I crank motor, then fire ignition. When I ran a Vertex locked, I had to do same thing.

Oh and it fires for 60deg of crank rotation.
take a look, http://www.directignition.com/products.html im well impressed with it. |
