Probably not the timing. Besides, you can easily check the timing by twisting the distributor while the engine is idling, to see if you can get it to run better. >Could a faulty vacuum advance be the cause? How to check if good? Disconnect the vacuum hose from the carb, plug the nipple on the carb where the hose was connected., and suck on the hose real hard. You should see the timing changing, and you should not sense an air leak in the system. If you have no timing light, remove the distributor cap and see if the breaker plate moves. >Could I adjust anything on the vacuum advance? Not really. >I have checked timing only with light, not with stroboscope. Could a >difference of +/- 1-2 degree makes theese kind of problems? Probably not. >any other suggestion for troubleshooting? Check for a vacuum leak.
