I have 2 distributors. A 250 and a 205A. Both are giving me issues. I am trying to adjust my timing and either the range of the advance is too small or I am advancing too fast. It seems I am fully advanced at about 2600 rpm. I should be at 3500 rpm. Is the maximum advance at 3500? Should there be some range beyond 3500? I have looked to see if something is stopping the advance plate and I don't see anything. This leaves the vacuum canister as a little suspect. I do have it disconnected. I am also using a Hot Spark igniter. Anyone see this before?
