Okay. The Fury is in the driveway now awaiting some much need attention.
I parked it out of disgust. It would only idle and run well at WOT....after a few years of thinking I decided that the distributor was the culprit.
I popped the cap off and grabbed the rotor. After twisting it left to right there is almost an inch of play in either direction. Now, I am no car wizzard but I suspect the shaft is work causing the timing to jump all over the damn place...
I have been shopping for a ditributor and I am pretty sure I can source a stock one and install the electronic conversion from the old Mallory dual point set up thats in it.
Now, the queston I have is do I really need vacuum advance? I can get one with and one without...is there any benifit to adding the advance?
Thoughts?
