hi,
I am currently trying to dial in my 454 and i have a vacuum advance distributer on there. My manifold vacuum is only 5hg so its not even letting the vacuum advance work, so should i just get a lock out kit for it? The only reason im hesistant is because a lot of people talk about how good vacuum advance is.

I also have a problem when i try and restart the truck after it was sitting for only 5 mins, i have to give it a little gas to start, its like its almost running but it just needs a little more gas to get it to.
Is this due to the distributer too?

thanx
david
