Re: [T3] surging & loss of power



I've tended to connect surging with timing changes as the vacuum changes.
This may be more likely with the double vacuum distributor (72/73), which is
the only one I've had experience of FI with. Ignition timing is very much
affected by the manifold vacuum, and has a big effect on idling speed.  Make
sure your timing is adjusted properly.  There is detail on the stock setting
and timing marks for Type 3s on the website.
