This is why I had to get a distributor with a vacuum advance instead of a just mechanical type.

Thin Lizzy 37 Report post Posted July 9, 2017 I've been driving the car around for a few days and it's better, guess I'm getting around 10-12 now. At least I'm not seeing the needle move when I put my foot down. 2 lalojamesliz and grendi reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
