034 distributor set up
Just fit an 034 and timed it to 32° at 3500rmp with vacuum pipe blocked off. After attaching vacuum pipe there is no further advance from 32° and I still have a horrible flat spot so unable to drive. I can see the vacuum seems to be in a different position to others and no1 is straight back to the fan when lining with the notch. What am I doing wrong? Pictures show position and vacuum hook up.

Re: 034 distributor set up
It’s been a really long time since I’ve worked on a VW flat four. So I don’t want to lead you in the wrong direction. I checked out a site www.aircooledvwlove.com that might help you out. I hope this helps.

Re: 034 distributor set up
After several hours of adjusting mixture, squirt and timing, this is where it's at.

Re: 034 distributor set up
I’ve been running Safaris’ on my single cab for several years now. And added a unit to the rear cab window two summers ago. They are great in traffic and really ‘cool’ on hot days. 😃😃
