I would like some advise as to whether my advance control plate in the distributor is severely worn or has it been modified to give extra advance. The plate hole extensions appear to be too even and symmetrical to be wear and there is no wear on the bob weight pins. Has this been seen by others? Total advance would be around 20deg according to my strobe light and on the road the car seem to perform reasonably well. I know if it ain't broke I shouldn't mend it. but wouldn't want to be putting the crank under unnecessary strain. As an after thought, should the bob weight springs be identical or one light and one heavy to give the best advance curve. (Who's going to be first to tell me to fit a BOSCH?
