Okay, so I set it at 5 degrees BTDC but it is still making popping noises. If I twist it far enough BTDC to not make the noise it barely idles. If I twist it ATDC it runs and idles better. What am I...

Souk,

Thanks for the input. I know that I am on the wrong side. Problem is as soon as I turn the distributor to get the mark on the BTDC side it starts making this popping noise.

Stripped stud - not what it sounds like

Any ideas on how to get this stud out. The thread got stripped, I then tried to pull it with a vice grip and now it's all screwed up.
