so how can it aid in starting easier then? You were saying that my initial of 18 isnt good enough to get her started easy and i needed to hook the vacuum advance up to get it to start easier?




Now that you have it running, if you want to see how this works, set your initial timing to some point where it will run.
Shut it off. Advance the dist some more, then try to crank it. It will crank hard.
Turn it back the other way, it will crank easier.
There is a happy place there somewhere.
Drag only engines running high rpm only use fixed or mechanical only distributors, and that is one reason why the aftermarket makes the high torque starters.
