I had a play with my distributor on the weekend and found the weights were actually
siezed. I stripped it down and gave it all the once over and a clean and regrease and
it now works as advertised. The engine now runs well at 18 deg btdc. It still will not
get any closer than that. I also did a compression check. and found I have only got
750-800 kpa and standard is supposed to be 1170 kpa. I am now wondering weather I will
have to strip down the engine and get the head decked to raise this a little.
Would low compression be making this problem worse or causing this problem. This is
only about 60% of the normal compression. If so how do you work out how much you need
to get decked off to raise the compression?
