Jack's comments about pinging you can't hear are very interesting and I would like to hear more about that, particularly how do you identify it. As far as vac advance units are concerned, I had mine ('56 Patrician - Delco) rebuilt in New Zealand for a total cost of AUD$63, including postage to Australia and it seems to work fine - it came back looking almost new (www.qualityrebuilds.com. Not being a purist I also fitted a Petronix electronic iginition kit as well and everything seems to work OK. I run it on 95RON petrol and can't hear any pinging, which is why I ask about the pinging you can't hear. Cheers, John Payne
