I have a 1979 South American FJ 43. with what looks like a HEI, there is no hose connected to the vacuum diaphragm on the side of the distributor, nor is it plugged. I have been having starting problems and removed a spark plug and held it against the engine while connected by the spark plug wire. someone turn the engine over, the solenoid clicked, the started spun but there was no spark at the spark plug. after several other turning of the key, all of a sudden the spark plug had spark and the engine fired. This has been an on going problem and I can not depend on vehicle starting. So I decided to opt for a new HEI system. Which one do I get, one with vacuum advance or one with mechanical advance? and if so where does the hose go from the vacuum advance? or do I plug it?
