Just finished completing my profile. I´m from Venezuela, Swift came only with carburetor, G13 and G16 (but you say SF416, so the other model would be SF413). So, no plates on the car either, just plain metal plate on the dashboard near the windshield with the serial number. And it doesn´t even look like the one on the plates US car have.
The distributor has a shallow cap, but the vacuum advance looks like the one on the C41, plus the internals are also different but only the electrical part, the rest seems the same mechanically speaking. Not surprised since both models can be found here with both shallow and tall caps, with different internals. Yep, quite a mess.
Small edit: it is the C41, the diagram is exactly like the one I have installed, but the C10 I have seen it on other SF416 like you said.
(uploaded attachments but they don´t seem to load properly)
Now, back to the importan question, being unable to find the vacuum advance that is for that distributor, can I just disconnect the advance and advance the timing up to certain point? No emissions testing here so I don´t worry about that, just want to get the car with the best performance possible.
I forgot to add that it has mechanical advance (checked it by using timing light), so at really light throttle I see advance, plus I can see the vacuum advance lever moving, pushing a little more the gas and there is more advance, so that means both mech and vacuum advance are advancing... (that sounded so weird... )
As service manual states, I am at +/- 5 or 6 degrees, that means I should advance, the question is, how much?
P.S.: some youtube videos
