1. starter kick back is when you go to start and it acts like the starter dragged for a second.
2. You have to limit the amount of mechanical advancement in the distributor by closing the slots. The two weights swing out by centrifugal force and springs return them. You can weld the slots, or, use a FBO ignition plate. FBO allows you to go 2* at a time. Really nice and affordable
3. The spring tension is what determines at what RPM you get your full advancement.

So once you get the initial set you no long turn the distributor it's all inside springs and things! Lol I'm gonna have to take a look at my dissy this is something iv never done. I have set the timing before but I always just set them at initial and went with it. I have been looking at different timing lights and stuff. I have to get one and I guess I need one of those tapes that go around the balancer.
