I still have the Weber. It has a good port. The other distributor did not use vacuum advance. I noticed that the screw that holds the points in place is longer, different than original, and would extend below the plate. Would this make contact ? There is also a small adjustment wheel on the side. What is that for? All the manuals I have are for the B18 so I am flying a bit blind here. Does anyone have a digital greenbook on this distributor? I will remove it today and break it down and lube it up. I squirted oil down the shaft before placing in the car. At first it held the timing and then as I was adjusting points the plate would pop or turn as I tried to loosen the points screw. I am getting closer, at least the car starts now.
