- In trying to adjust the timing on my '79 B, the timing fluctuates somewhat. The timing advance springs are weak and are apparently the cause. I have checked the VB and Moss catalogs. VB doesn't even

- It seems unlikely to me that the springs would be the cause of your timing drift. When was the last time you changed the timing chain and tensioner? The 79 had a flimsy 1 row timing chain. They stret

- Timing drift (a.k.a. spark scatter) is not a result of weak distributor springs. Weak springs manifest themselves as overly quick advance. Most often, the cause of spark scatter is worn distributor b

- Hmm.. It sounds like I may have some worn distributor bearings. When I set up the timing light, the line on the pully seems to jump around a bit - fairly erraticly. Guess I'll get to it when I rebuil
