I followed the info in Mike Davison's book by removing the two point set and putting in one in my crab distributor. Now I can't seem to get it to run smoothly at fast idle. I never did run it with two points. I had the conversion done before I cranked it up the first time. It runs good going down the road however. Did I make a mistake? should I switch it back. I am running 6 volts. Cam is a Schneider 255 cam. The engines sounds real good at low idle but I should think it should smooth out at higher RPM.
