It honestly should not have made any difference. Timing, -whether set manually or set automatically accomplishes the exact same thing. In other words, if the automatic advance sets the total advance at 30°, and or whether I move the spark lever down until the timing is set to 30° total advance, the engine itself does not know the difference.

Ohh, and welcome to Fordbarn!!
