Jim,

Thanks for your thoughts. Just to note, we are using the original dual point distributor which has been completely overhauled. I'll check and see how he went about setting initial timing in regards to the vacuum advance. The dist. is not 180 out - it was one of the first things we checked intially.

The only problem with this whole timing concept is I have found it hard to believe that timing can allow one side of the engine to be so steady and yet the other so poor.? Another friend claims it can happen so we'll see when everything is reassembled.

Thanks for the timing answers but I still need the firing order if anyone knows it. Thanks again!
