I have a 67 mustang with a slightly modded 302. The motor has an autolite 4100 carb with a crower 15202 cam, edelebrock performer intake and its bored 40 over. I was having a problem with vacuum so (baron) moved my vacuum from the carb to a port on the intake. Now Im getting advance but when I put it "in time" it boggs in low nd runs great in high. If I advance the timing it runs great in low and pops,backfires exc in high. I havent tried retarding the timing to much cause I was afraid that the lows would get worse. any body have any ideas or free time this weekend? thanks in advance. Here are pictures of my plugs.

you just cant hook it up to any vacuum has to be from the metering block off the carb i only know this cause iv done it and that's what i was told! does it crank slow after getting hot? those vacuum line pull all the time witch makes it advance all the time. the one off the carb only works when it needs to.

on the timing Im not 100% sure what it is at. My balancer has lines but no markings. I have the mark on it when I used that balancer on my stock 289 where that motor ran great (except for being old an wore out.Originally posted by BaronIf I dissagree with you, it is because you are wrong.

the dis needs to go to the carb (the port a little higher than the rest) take your readings from the manifold. when checking just leave the vacuum line off. make sure all vacuume ports are hooked up or pluged when taking readings ( besides the dis)

I re hooked the advance to the carb and it was very very sluggish in low rpms. If I leave it hooked to the manifold it runs the same through all rpms but still doesnt seem right and when i give it gas smoke shoots out the back for a second?Originally posted by BaronIf I dissagree with you, it is because you are wrong.
