Is it as flat6 says? Backwards from what I said?

Crank pulley moves clockwise. I think 5 BTDC is the timing point at idle with all vacuum lines detatched and plugged. That mark should be first. I got confused by looking at internet pics.

The retard function is the only one that works at idle. Vacuum advance kicks in off idle but that's another thread.

Thanks, Bruce. A pic is worth a million words.
