leave the hose where it is and as for and set the points gap at 16 though and start the timing at 7 though from then on its a matter of fuel and
timing
good luck.if you block the advance hose you will never get it to run

SVDA distributor -
Yes,
leave the vacuum hose connected for the advance...
that should work better than the 009 distributor...
points 016" or .4mm Gap
timing should be about 7 1/2 degrees BTDC...
now some books say hose OFF...
to set the timing with a strobe lamp...
this may be OK for idling???
