So tomorrow in going to check the timing on my 71. It has a pamco ignition. I've never timed an engine before. I've tried to find the answers in looking for but came up short.
How do I advance/retard the timing with a pamco ignition? Do I loosen and turn the pamco plate? Do I have to test both cylinders?
I understand how the timing gun works (pretty much). I also intend to check the advance weights and springs to make sure they still have a nice snap. Got myself a nice cheap timing light from harbor freight (same one Mike's sells). Any tips greatly appreciated.
