yep ... now let the RPM come up and watch it go back up again ... its load dependent, its affected by both throttle position and RPM. Either way, whatever vaccum advance you have is added to the mechanical advance you have which is added to the initial advance, so you can't just discount vaccum advance. Well you can but you're gonna end up with more advance than you bargined for
