Short answer..........Loosen the clamp where the column slips over the steering box and rotate accordingly.

Re: Spark Advance Lever adjustment
You'll have to loosen the clamp on the column inside the cabin also.
This adjustment is pretty critical. The arm on the advance plate needs to to travel fully (stop to stop) in the notch in the distributor body when hooked to the linkage and using the lever on the column. If you paid someone to install the steering column I'd have them finish the job, and/or be on the lookout for other things they did wrong.

Re: Spark Advance Lever adjustment
Thanks for the help. Dick your right on checking for other issues. Lights and horn work so we'll go from there.

Re: Spark Advance Lever adjustment
I understand the 30-31 has the adjustable band on the column...the 28-29 does not.
