Help setting timing and vac advance

I would turn the vacuum can adjustment all the way counter clockwise to start. This gives the advance the soonest in the vacuum range.

Read elsewhere on this forum:
if the canister has a hex shaped end, the preload can be adjusted by turning an internal screw. This is done by inserting a 3/32" hex key (Allen wrench) into the nipple. Counterclockwise = higher vacuum needed to advance.
THAT is an excerpt from here:

I read the first two to be opposite statements. I didn't go look up my spec sheet on the matter, but IIRC, the latter is correct.

...and NOT the same as the former.

Yea, verily or...'YOU! Go Sit In The Back Row!'
