Thanks for all the help so far. > I took my 009 apart, and the total advance can be adjusted. There are a couple of verticle tabs on the advance mechanism, that stop the weights as they come out under centrifugal force. I think that you would bend these out "just slightly", you could adjust how much the total advance. BTW, I found that mine only has 1 spring in it. I would be curious if anyone else has had an 009 distributor apart, and how many springs did yours have.
