Timing/ Tuning a '73 318

A pretty stock 318 with an intake and carb will run good at 9* to 12* advanced. A good baseline setting for an Eddy carb is to start at 1 1/2 turns out on each of the mixture screws and adjust from there. If you have to turn the screws more than 2 1/2 turns out for it to run right there is something else wrong. Make sure that the vacume advance on the distributer is plugged into the passenger side of the carb as the driver side is constant vacume.
