Default Re: Too much timing?
TJ, check out my thread named "Stock 305D Dyno Results". (Sorry I don't know how to insert a tread link inside a post.) I'm still running mine the same as noted within the last post. I do a lot of towing too and it runs great; no pinging, etc.

FYI, I've had my truck for six or seven years and I have the same 'lack of vacuum at the distributor at idle' you've noted. I don't believe I have ever brought it up here, so I'm curious to see what you find out. My intake vacuum is 20.

All other engines I have worked on (I6 & 4 bangers), there is a noticeable difference when disconnecting the vacuum advance line.
