I'm trying to time my 1.8 with carbs, and am having a rough time. I'm not sure if I am suppose to have a vacuum advance or not on my dist. Anyone know if the dist on my car is stock, or if it's an "upgrade". If it's an upgrade, is it any good?
I ordered a new condenser for it, and the one I ordered didn't seem to be right (original had a separate bracket that held the plug in - replacement had the bracket attached to the condenser). I believe that I had to mount the condenser upside down for it to fit properly (as it was originally). If the condenser was mounted in what seemed to be the proper position, the dist would not fit back into the engine properly. (IMG:http://img106.imageshack.us/img106/5383/picture2007012as1.th.jpg) |
