Ok 73 2.0 built to a 2056. Currently running points. Checked dwell and set to specs. I was setting the timing and I have a timing light that you can set in the advance.
1st question: Can you use the advance setting on the timing light instead of the 27 at 3500 rpm? 2nd question: My dizzy has 2 vacuum ports. One is advance and one is retard. My throttel body only has one vacumm port for the dizzy. Do I need both hooked up? 3rd Question: Do I have the vacuum line on the correct (advance) side? ![]() 4th Question: when I check the timing (just for fun) with the vacuum hose hooked up as shown the timing is not anywhere close to 27 at any rpm. That seems odd. |

Yea...I was gonna say that....also, but I'm not SURE if the "cans" use a common diaphragm.
If you leave retard side off and the diaphragm is cracked that could present a problem, meaning a vaccum leak. I think you might want to make sure both sides hold vaccum as well. There was another post that had several problems with the dizzy, that was one. |
