WARNING -- it already caught fire once
Before you advance the distributor find out where it is at now. Check your timing marks. Do not advance if the timing is correct.
The distributor mechanical advance may be loose. Pull the cap and see if you can turn the rotor back and forth with two fingers. It should only move a little.
Too far advanced: Hard to start, resists the battery. But idles well and pull hard, but won't rev very high
Too far retarded: poor power, backfires, runs hot
