Hi All
It appears the distributor on my 100 ( still in possession )has slipped a little and I now have pinging/knocking/pinking...whatever you may want to call it, on heavy throttle. Idle is OK.
My questions are.
1. Is is running too retarded.
2. Which way do I turn the distributor to advance ie clockwise or anti clockwise.

ie -
to advance turn ??
to retard turn ??
Thanks

Dimitri
