Timing setting help please - 1969 w115/220 gas 4 cylinder

[crojack]

I just pulled a carb off a 69 and that looks the same to me.

Good to know Crojack - in my book on the 220, the carb shown is different than what I see, perhaps the book shows a later model carb.

What are you going to do with the Carb you just pulled off - are you changing it out or rebuilding?

I have not messed with the timing since adjusting the valves - time just has not allowed, and I needed to step away for a bit. With the car running much better I would like to get the most out of my setup. I need to go over the notes to follow the best way to set the timing with this vacuum setup. Your feedback is much appreciated and needed.

Vacuum Advance - I will have to take a few photos of the Carb I have so you may see what I am working with, I did not know if my carb with operate with my particular carb, as they are both non-stock for my year/model.

Correct Vacuum connection - I want to be sure I connect the vacuum advance to the correct port on the carb, if I have a correct port! I know I have one that gives constant vacuum, I would like to revisit to see if it does vary much using a vacuum gauge.

Bring it on! Tell me more!

Hi Topher39 . . .
Would you please be so kind as to share the Valve Clearances which you have used when adjusting on W115 220 Gasoline engine with me please . . .
I notice in your previous post that you mentioned that you adjusted your Valves on the same engine which I have . . . but did not mention the settings for the Clearance on the Valves.

I have searched the internet . . . but had difficulty finding the values for these settings . . .

Much appreciated in advance . . .

Thank You.
