What the heck is every one doing to replace the mechanical advance springs in their distributors on older motors ? Or am I the only one that missed out on buying special springs that last forever ? Going crazy trying to find a couple springs for this 1971 888 with an Autolite distributor (motor s/n 3110139). And where can I find the timing curve for this Ford 302 ? The timing curve service bulletin posted many times only has the GM motors Merc used..... no Ford. And didn't see it in the service manual ignition section either.
I guess if I had the curve I could experiment with springs until I got it pretty close !
I know I can change out the dizzy to one of those fancy $500 ALL electronic jobs...... Absolute last resort only and probably wont do it even then. Any help/suggestions finding these springs or some kind of reasonable alternative will save my sanity at this point :faint2:
