    As per Preyupy, I spent hours fiddling with my carbs only to discover a bad plug wire, and more importantly, I wasn't using enough advance. Getting that right made a huge difference. Hence our ongoing return to this step. You need a timing light to confirm what is happening. Swapping jets is down the list.

    Ideally you put the same shim/spacer back in the same side.

    As Preyupy said, 32 to 34 deg by 3000 to start. That means about 10 deg at idle with a non vac dizzy on my car. I don't know how thoroughly IE checks floats, etc., so doesn't hurt to revisit settings. You may need to make your own paint marks on the flywheel or ftont pulley.

    And the timing? Fuel pressure regulator? Float levels?
  5. Hans
    Seems like only yesterday 500 bucks got you a whole car.
  6. Hans
    How are you setting timing?
  7. Hans
    Bottom line is, make sure cap nuts are not bottoming out, for whatever reason.

    I believe they have some sort of new distributor. May or may not be suitable for your needs. I think that electronic ignition will smooth out some of the issues presented by a used distributor, as long as advance systems work.

    says used right in the title. What about rogers Tii?
  10. Hans
    That said, $500 for a used distributor? I'm rich!! Now, I would be careful buying a used distributor without inspection in case the bushings are worn.
  11. Hans
    Tii with vacuum advance?

    Look on Realoem for part numbers and google them. Or find a local bearing store (they often carry u-joints) and take it in.
  13. Hans
    It looks like there are two sizes, 26 and 28 MM. Google the part numbers for sources of generic u-joints. Or find a u-joint outlet near you and take them the old one to match. Or as suggested, a driveshaft facility. I may have something in the garage, but it's still snowed in!
  14. Hans
    So what is it that you are looking for?

    Long winter in WA?
  16. Hans
    I would be inclined to prop hood open for this exercise.
  17. Hans
    while you've got everything apart....
  18. Hans
    why not replace the U-joint?
  19. Hans
    I don't have Haynes here but I vaguely recall photos of RHD system with remote servo and extra plumbing. May be a different bleed technique. ANd I too recall Upper, Inner, Outer. But it's early
  20. Hans
    I'd be covering those hot terminals in the photo car. Especially in the trunk.
  21. Hans
    I bent up my own new brackets and bolted to teh floor.
  22. Hans
    Clean out the big spring for the window. Check big stud that holds it.
  23. Hans
    best to search for previous posts ( here or on NK forum) on how to get the beggar installed. I like the metal shoe horn.
  24. Hans
    Any idea why there are two small holes at bottom of front apron by bumper support??
  25. Hans
    Where did you get the shifter platform?
