Default Re: V6 305 distributor issues

I have nothing but questions at this point. Much has been posted on this site about distributors and tune-ups that you could search for. It would help to know if the truck backfires immediately when throttle is pressed or after the engine revs up? Both vacuum and mechanical advance would be different in these two situations. Also, is your vacuum advance hose connected to ported or manifold vacuum? And did the new distributer come with install and tune-up directions, or do you have to figure things out as you do them?
