<div> <font size="3">I think it is much more likely that the newer, stiffer springs are a little bit longer resulting in the 10 - 15 degree advance. It would not take much extra length to do that and it may not even be perceptible with the naked eye.</font><br>

<div><span style="font-family:sans-serif;font-size:11pt;">Gee,
really hard to mess up reading a timing light before and after changing springs. Only been doing it for 50 years or so, but even if I do it incorrectly, as long as I do it the same each time the TRUTH is the timing advanced 10-15 degrees with the newer springs.</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family:sans-serif;font-size:11pt;">Perhaps
we are looking at this backwards. Let's say the weights move out the same amount no matter what springs are used. the springs pull upon a part of the distributor and advance the timing. How strong is the resistance of the part on the distributor that advances?
I suspect not very, in which case the stronger springs will pull the distributor part sooner advancing the timing sooner.</span></div>
