Re: 292 Questions

Based on what most of you said, I set the initial timing at 12 degrees of advance with vac on distributor plugged @ idle rpm 600-700. Hesitation with gas seems to be gone. Smoke is definitely still there. Small steady amount at idle, smoke cloud with a good pedal. So much so that I didn't drive it around block. White smoke maybe a slight amount of blue tint. Even after engine warmed up revving/idling 20 mins.

Another thing i noticed, I covered the intake on the breather with my hand and it didn't impact it at all. Strange??

Dwell is reading 39.
15.4V @ idle

Checked compression with about 3-4 seconds of turn over, cyl wall best i could and plugs.

Cyl 1: 110, black deposit with some visible wear on cyl wall, black plug
Cyl 2: 110, black deposit with some visible wear on cyl wall, plug very bad
Cyl 3: 120, black deposit, plug slightly brown not bad
Cyl 4: 135, black deposit, plug slightly brown not bad
Cyl 5: 120, black deposit, plug slightly brown not bad
Cyl 6: 110, less black deposit than others, plug slightly brown not bad

My scope is not very good but i could see what looked like some visible scratches on cyl 1/2. I could barely see them on the camera so pics are bad. (pic of cyl 6, smoke and video on next page)
