I guess you have two options the first being adjusting the dizzy whilst the cars running, undo both screws but not all the way and advance the timing, the second is to adjust the mixture adjustment screw which is under the cross pipe up to you which you chose but i'd use the first. Hope this helps alittle, Thx Jon
