I have a g16 engine, 16v, carbureted. The original vacuum advance canister is damaged, and decided to buy whatever was close to it to fix it. I got a G13 vacuum advance, I did noticed the spring being softer than the g16, but I still installed it to get the car running.
Yes, it didn't work as expected, lots of ping at 2krpm under mild acceleration.
Since I haven't been able to find the canister, I wanted to know, it there any other way to fix the initial timing so that the engine runs better without vacuum advance? At how many degrees?
Also I am missing the timing cover and so far I have used a protractor to set the static timing at +/- 6 degrees, is that an ok method to do it?
