This weekend played with my distributor springs - set them up this time to bring in timing just a tad later and the cerve to be a bit more even. It is actually the default factory configuration. It only takes a bit to pop of/on new springs.

However, this time a little brass washer popped off that goes under one side of the spring. It took me nearly 2 hours to find that darn thing, which ended up bouncing forward of the distributor and rested under the divorced choke on the intake manifold. I really thought I wasn't going to find the darn thing!

Also got a new gas cap from the parts section for 72 gas tanks, fits so much better than the repo and look tons better too. I've ordered new valve grommets and a oil cap. After spending hours looking for that brass washer with my face 3 inches from the engine, I notice oil leaks around the grommets/cover and oil cap.
