The advance is dead on. Set the idle to 1500 rpm and if I turn the dizzy clockwise or counter=clockwise the rpms drop.
I put a “Grose-Jet” needle & seat in and gas (a lot) started coming out of the overflow above 2500 rpm. I used the included washer and it didn’t solve the problem. The two floats I have are plastic non-adjustable floats. I put the original needle and seat back in. that seemed to solve the problem.
Here’s what is going on with a variety of different setups. All have a spring aaa needle in common.
- Fixed jet installed one spring and 20 weight oil in dashpot. I need 24 flats to get it started and both slow and fast revs cause massive drop in revs. Not drivable.
- Waxstat jet installed, one spring and 20 weight oil in dashpot. 12 flats to get it started and a slow rev will work but a fast rev causes it to stall. The engine needs to be over 3000 rpm to get it moving.
- Waxstat jet installed, two springs and 20w50 oil in the dashpot. 12 flats to get it started and bot slow and fast revs will work and I can drive the car.
There are no intake leaks and the advance is around 26 degrees for all of the above. If I retard it or advance it past 26 degrees the revs will drop.
I have a aac needle maybe I’ll try that one tomorrow.
All I can say is what the hell
