So Geezer you're suggesting retarding the mechanical timing & connecting the vacuum advance back up? I know the Mallory distributor came with an advance limiter so I could install that & try. She idles nicely enough until you take it out for a run. Then back in the driveway or wherever you go the revs go up when you put it in park. It's pretty embarrassing when you shut it down & it sputters & coughs 😳!
