Ok.I checked all the above.

I advanced the timing as far as the distributor would go attached to metal vacuum line. It starts and runs much better but will still pop out Carb.


If I physically hold distributor from retarding back once vacuum is gone it doesnt pop.

I am assuming either the vacuum advance is falling away too quickly or I am still too retarded in general.

Could it be I need to advance my firing order one position around the cap and then set my timing back down and advance if necessary from there?
