Gary you just brought back a flood of memories for me . The local ham operator my town had license plates with his call letters on it W9JWI I had one of the receivers that you changed the coil on to change the band you could listen to . I think the cord had some kind of resistance in it as the cord would get very warm He had Chevrolet car he had his short wave radio in when he would transmit there was a noise from the trunk that sounded like a starter motor running it was a 1950 Chevy had to be a6volt Mike

FYI I just received a quote to have 2 head light rings replayed it was drum roll. $225.00 each. This man is just about giving the away.

1st replace the starter drive. Or 1 plug or 5 plus in open throttle or closed Just do each cylinder the same you are looking to get a base line nothing more nothing less

I fail to say that the Allen wrench goes into the vacuum advance unit ( there is an adjustment in side. )

That's just what the man said about my radiator that they fixed for me . I think what they were concerned about was any scale or corrosion shoulder out and scale off when dried out and get into the passages similar to place in your heart

Mike I used Ford's electric grease part number F8AZ19G208AA good for switchs connectors even dist caps. Mike

I'm not real sure about the spark knock but here goes remove the vacuum advance hose insert a 1/8 '' Allen wrench turn it clock wise 1 turn install hose road test. Repeat 1 turn at a time up to 4 turns it should eliminate the spark knock and may cover up the hesitation if not turn it back the number of turns you add. No cost to try Mike let me know
