So the car had a few good runs and 1 funky one. So in monkeying around, I found that the distributor was barely loose, and I mean barely. I think it was twisting here and there, but could never figure it out.

1) Reset timing and clamped her down good!
2) Put lighter springs on the weights and checked total timing
3) Messed with the 4 corner idle until I was able to get max vac. She didn't like that very much when I took it for a test drive. So I went home and bumped it up, but it is way too rich so I will mess with the air bleeds. Ran like a bat outta hell!


The car starts up immediately again and runs well Thanks for the suggestions!
