timing light going crazy was created by zmaniscalco
I am having a problem at low RPM’s with my spark, I set the timing but when it idles it looks like the spark goes from normal to 10x as fast and back down….. What the hell is going on?

ok looks like a new timing advancer, or dyna 2000. I have sean a few treads about making a new spring????
but I think it is time to save for the Dyna 2000, with a turbo I heard it works great. Just to nake sure that will replace the timing advancer right?
