centrifugal advance springs are weak and you tune with a timing light,
you will have significantly retarded the timing from its normal setting.
And on our old, tired LBCs, weak springs are probably very likely.

Bill,
        Good point.  The timing marks do advance though when I yank on th=
e
throttle cable, so I think they are OK.  Just for the heck of it, I've ju=
st
set the timing at idle using the strobe to 30 degrees BTDC.  Went out for=
 a
drive.  Same problem.
Thanks anyway,   Adrian
