  1. To Confirm: The distributor in the car has centrifugal and vacuum advance
  2. Good Afternoon, The car is an 1974 TII, I believe it was used as a parts car by a previous owner. Somewhere along the road I believe I heard the distributor was out of a 1969 model. I will re-read all of the responses. I appreciate them all. Question: Does the BB indicate a specific advance. IE: 25 Degrees. The manual indicate a 1974 TII is to be timed to 25 Advance at 2400 RPM. To get a baseline before I get the proper timing light does this mean i set the idle at 2400 RPM and then should see the BB???
  3. Would the best play be to replace the distributor? And if so, with what? dont have much funding so if I can get it to work with what I have that would be preferable
  4. Attached shows vacuum advance working Appears to be be counter clockwise IMG_0131.MOV
  5. It appear that the plenum pulls the points counter clockwise another question. I believe I time to the ball on the fly wheel. I also marked the crank pully. What degree of advance is the ball and at what RPM do it time to. I see a lot of info on max advance but haven't gotten that far. Thanks again
  6. I have read multiple times that the Tii does not have vacuum advance. Mine does. Is it a problem? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  7. It is a1974 Tii. I have the diagram. From real OEM. 23/17. The lower shifter arm (part 10) is installed and held in by lock ring #9. I can't tell whether ball cups #19 are already installed under clip#9 . I think #20, 19, 19, 18, 17, are in the sleeve on part #8 (shifting arm). I assume the the remaining parts are place on the lower shift arm and part 11 slides over it. Does part 14 rubber ring slide all the way down to the ball? It is a very tight fit if so. For the life of me I can't figure out where circlip #13 goes. There is no slot that it would clip into i am obviously lost
  8. When I bought the car the stick lever was laying in the floor board. All other parts missing . I ordered the spacer, springs , caps, etc.. I can't figure out how it goes together. If anybody has instructions it would be a huge help Thanks Buck

  10. Gas tank return leaks from the fitting. It appears that the is a metal seat/washer that seats into the Kugelfisher. Is there supposed to be an O ring as well? What can I do to fix the leak
  11. I relieved the shock by drilling a hole and the fluid came out. Shock will only compress if I hit it with a sledge. Very tiny increments. What am I doing wrong?
  12. Original fuel pump is shot. Can't afford a new TII pump. Read that a 5 series and/or 3 Series fuel pump will work. Need to visit junk yard to find a replacement. Is there specific models, years that I need to look for. Also.... The original reserve canister is no longer with the car. Is that needed or can I go with just a pump? Any help would be most appreciated.
