centrifical advance, it's done with weights on springs that expand when 
they go around faster thus advancing the center of the distributor which 
is mounted on a pivot.

Even the vacuum advance units have weights, when you put your foot down, 
you make more vacuum and the tube sucks the diaphram thus moving the 
center of the dizzy.
