It's overheating now and getting sluggish when it's doing so. Part of the problem is that the vacuum advance is bad. I am also wanting to upgrade from points to the Ignitor II from Pertronix. How much benefit, performance enhancement would I see with: 1. Vacuum Advance 2. Vacuum Advance + Spacer 3. #2 + Pertronix Ignitor (and possibly coil to go with). I still gotta get the carb gasket either way, hence my indecisiveness. Thoughts? -------------------------- I.
