SE LA Mustang Clubs

Our club is northshore mustang club. (www.northshoremustangclub.com) We meet in Abita Springs.

There is a show on May 8 in Baker at the Ford Dealer there put on by the BR club. It is a fund raiser. I plan on being there--it is always a good show. If you come, stop by and say hello!

Oz--the shaft is fine--the distrib is about 3 years old and all is as it should be there.

Anyway, replaced the vac advance as the old one was not holding a vaccuum. Once I got the freakin' e clip off the vac advance "arm" and replaced--it broke into a zillion rusty pieces--the new vac advance slid right in and the surging is all but gone.

Now, the only problem is that much of my get up and go is gone, too. Reset the timing and it is better, but not like it was. Still have to reset the dizzy back one tooth, but we should be good to go from there.

Still, thanks to everyone for your advice and help. I owe all of you a BEvERage of your choice.

I appreciate it!

Re stick your Dist and set it up to 10-14 or as high as it will go without pinging. you should notice some improvment.

I'll try to make it out to the show in Baker! Where is the dealership located at if I'm coming down Plank Rd.? How far is it in relation to say the airport?
