    Clutch not disengaging properly?!

    Distributor Installation

    Cat Man, Timing is simple. No need to get stressed out. You will need rto know how sometime anyway. Call a Fellow Model A guy in your area to go through it with you. It is a great time to learn and have a beer with a friend. If I was closer I would be right there.
