Although the timing was off and the vacuum advance was hooked up incorrectly, it did not get better once I fixed these problems.<br /><br />Hopefully my own experience will help point you in the right direction. It's the original Autolite 2100 2-barrel. I'd be trying to fix it, but I got an Edelbrock 600 cfm waiting to take its place. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>tino_tad</b> <br /><small>Member # 3782</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2004,3,5,9,11,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> if i unhook the vacum advance should i plug it up or just leave it. <br /> </font> </td></tr> </table></td></tr></table> <br /> <br />
