: My '75 has the ball bearing inbedded in, and the a few inches away the is a hash-mark, that the PO painted white, any ideas as to what it represents, and why he painted it white? And when timing, fromt the pass. side where should the bearing line up with, center top or bottom of the tranny hole? I think my dist. is toast, it seems I'm constantly retiming the thing, was suggested that maybe the springs that return it, after it advances under vaccuum are shot, should I upgrade to a mech. adv if this is the case? Many thanks...C
The mark that is painted is probably the TDC mark. I have had good luck with the mech. adv. distributors; im running it in the 68 1600 and had one in the 74 and the 76 2002 no troubles.
some disagree but what else is new :) (do what works) I dont set the timing with a light i run the engine till its fully advanced (about 2500-3000) then advance the dist till it misses and back it off a hair.
see if that helps good luck , Brian
