Your vintage Volkswagen Beetle not starting? Backfiring? Coughing? Only idles at high speed? It may be due to a Timing Issue resolved with a PROPER installation of the Distributor. VW Bruce, a #Stage4 Cancer survivor, who sometimes has "word salad", addresses how to tell the front-side from the backside of a distributor without the bracket on, what is a Wave Washer, and drops a static Timing Tip at the 7:33 mark that does not need a Timing Light! Due to "Word Salad", he wanted to say that the #ShepherdsHook shaped Vacuum Line keeps gas from getting into the Distributor. So! Happy #Fahrvergnügen, and Thanks for Watching!
