So, I hate to be slow on this but if my distributor is set pretty good
now and I just want enough movement to fine tune it, do I loosen the
vertical bolt or the horizontal clamp to get the limited movement?
Thanks

Jim---Only the earlier had what could be called a vernier adjustment to
fine tune the distributor. Your model doesn't have this feature. The
"fine" adjustment here is the single bolt that holds the distributor
clamping ring to the side of the block. It's elongated and can give a
few degrees of timing.
If you need more adjustment to time the distributor than this slot can
provide, then it will be necessary to loosen the horizontal bolt that
goes thru this clamping ring. This will give you the full range.

Our distributors turn counterclockwise, when the engine is running. So
to advance timing, it is necessary to turn the dist. body in the
clockwise direction. And VV.

Is the TR6 (74) distributor just released and then manually cranked
advance or retard?  I see reference to a fine adjustment.  How exactly
does this work?  Also, which way is advance and which way is retard?
Thanks, Jim
