Ok, so I'm a liitle new to the Packard thing...........
My timing is running a bit retarded and I want to advance it, and am having difficulty getting the distrbutor loose. There's a bolt on the left side w/ a gauge at the base and one on the right that also has a slot for a flathead screwdriver. I've played w/ both and still cannot get the distrbutor to move. I'm beggining to feel a little stupid. Anything I'm missing?

Thanks in advance!
