God back and re in stall the delivery valve spring .
When the valve gets old and weepy (poor sealing), you get this, I had the same issue and after installing the new spring setting the timing wasn't difficult, you just need to print out the instructions and lay / tape them on the air cleaner for reference .
? Will you be using the factory setting of 24 degrees or maybe a few more ? .
I'm currently running 27 degrees and when there's no other problems, the car runs very well indeed .
I found the problem, but only by accident. When I disconnected the vacuum line going to the stop valve, the pump make a clack and the fuel stopped right up. Set time with no further issues. No more smoke, climbs hills well, gas pedal is way off the floor when cruising now. Had to bend the pipes quite a bit to get them back on, so obviously moved it quite a bit. It was almost to the limit of motion pulled away from the engine and now its about midway. I'll bet it was 10 deg off.
Thanks for your thoughts.
