Yes, I agree.....the dist should not advance until rpms exceed idle speed, but mine does. I should order a Mallory kit I guess. I do have some other springs...generic, but they seem to all be on the stiff side, so it may fix the idle, but then keep the advance rate low. Of course, it could prove wether or not the dist is the problem or not, even if it doesn't work quite right to begine with.

However, it only occurs after a hard WOT run. And even then, not always...which may be due to how hard the run was, or wether it was up a hill or not. Testing up a hill is always a good idea with these light cars.....chuckle.

Oh well, more tinkering and testing tomorrow...if the crappy weather gets better. I swear, every time somebody buys a convertible, it rains....LOL.

Thank-you for your input. The dist wasn't my priority to start troubleshooting, but you point is well taken and it's fairly easy to test.
