Ignition Timing

  1. Leading timing is adjusted by loosening distributor lock nut and rotating distributor housing until correct timing is obtained. See Fig 1.
  2. Trailing timing is changed by loosening the screws securing the vacuum unit and moving the vacuum unit outward (to advance) or inward (to retard). Retighten screws when correct timing is obtained.
