![]() My '82 has a Mallory mechanical advance distributor. Do I have to buy an advance/retard kit to adjust the timing?
I run 93 octance gas and under full throttle I get detonation. The distributor is factory set at 24 degrees. I think I need to retard the timing a couple degrees. Is there another way to do this?
