new distributor timing trouble
i tok out my old distributor and installed my new one after finding TDC and placing the rotor correctly . the car runs but the timing is extremly advanced way past the tab. when i bring the timing back to the tab it stalls. i rebuilt the carb after insalling the distributor . why wont it time properly

Re: new distributor timing trouble
