You are suppose to set your timing with the vaccum advance hose disconnected and plug with a bolt or a my favorite is a golf tee .. then you can use a timing light on the harmonic dampener to read the timing

When adjusting the carb I always leave it connected ... If you vaccum advance is hooked to manifold vaccum .. the idle should increase slightly when you plug it back in ..

Adjusting idle mixture is best done with a vaccum gauge

Of all my favorite things to do, The utmost is to have a brew.
My love grows for my foamy friend, with each thirst-quenching elbow bend.
Beer so frosty, smooth, and cold it's paradise pure liquid gold.
Yes beer means many things to me that's all for now cus I gotta pee.
