Thank you. That is good info. Understanding the process will certainly help in selection of options. I always wanted to change the jets but now I am moving to sea level so it makes sense to advance it a little for now until I move.

Thanks for the name. As far as the put a light on it, I thought the octane selector was for the purpose of easily changing the timing when you change elevations and not have to get the timing light out when you go into the mountains on a hunting trip. Am I wrong?

Some time back I saw a post that discussed advancing the timing for altitude. Someone said what the degree of of change was for each click on the little gizmo on the distributor. I can't find it now and I'm at 8500 feet. Anyone recall what it is? (Might as well remind me what the little knob...

Sorry, but I hadn't refreshed the screen and didn't see you sent your number. I drove it to supermaxi and it did okay:steer:

Tomorrow is fine for me. I'll check with the wife about her plans for tomorrow to see when she'll let me go:bounce:

Hey cuencanolenny. How goes it. I've had one nightmare after another. I fix one thing and something else went wrong. But this morning I think I'm good to go. I can make to your place so we can tune it up. If the offer is still open, how does your schedule look?

I am really losing it. Of course the screws are loose. I just took out the points. Laugh with me guys. :bang::rofl:

I had to pull out the points for my first time and I would like to know if these screws are supposed to be loose. 79 2F non-USA. looks like an original distributor.

Nice suggestion thanks. A lotta good info there.

I have a three wire system and can't find a proper VR here. So I have a New Era AVR 811 that I'm trying to make work. Are the terminals identifiable from the back? Or do I have to open it up? 6

Now I am in Cuenca. The Amaluza I'm at is almost on the border with Peru. South end of Loja Province. Almost straight south of Catemayo (East of City of Loja). Gotta bad battery I think. Showing 9v. Must have a dead cell. Gotta buy one before I can get it started

Cuencanolenny. I went to Amaluza to get my tools. That's why I haven't made arrangements to come over. However, my tools don't include a timing light. So, it the offer is still open...

Excelente info. Much of it sounds familiar. I think I can get running pretty good (with your help)
