I am working on a 73 1.7
Valves adjusted to spec Points set using dwell Timing on the nose at 27' @ 3500 rpm (vac lines plugged) She runs fairly well. had lots of ping on a up hill. I could rev through it ... More ping as revs drop under load. Today I put in fresh 91 octane and 16oz of seafoam, took a nice drive up a mountain. Almost all the ping is gone. Should I retard the timing just a bit ? Or other suggestions / input much appreciated. |

pinging under load is too much advance, stock dist.?
make sure weights are free and the advance curve is correct. for the fi you are running. |
