Re: Started her up!
You leave it plugged off because you don't want the vac advance pot to add any timing to your motor. If your motor is running a bit rough the vac advance will make the timing fluctuate a bit, not giving you a true reading.
You also need to get your idle down near 700 rpm when setting initial. THe reason for that is usually at 800 rpm the mechanical advance starts coming in in the distributor. You want your initial to be true. No vac advance and no mechanical.
Another tip is once you adjust the distributor lock it down so it won't move. If slightly loose the distributor will rotate cw retarding your timing.
Your smoke could be fuel vapour. FRom poor combustion.
In your video's I can hear your motor struggling. LIkely due to not enough initial.
What other mods to your motor besides the holley?
