My bone stock 73 FJ40 runs/drives great. It has a Fairey OD that was installed at the dealership when purchased and it makes highway speed very comfortable. The original F155 has great compression on all cylinders, excellent oil pressure and runs smooth. I had Mark rebuild the factory 1973...
So I recently lost the timing on my 40, but realigned it, BB lined up and she actually starts stronger than before. Problem I'm having now is when I attach the vaccum advance and hit the throttle she stumbles like a drunk bridesmaid with one heel on. Any advice?
