When setting one of them up first you unhook it and set the base ideal of the carb and make all adjustments to the carb , also engine curb timing is set with the vac. lines unhooked as some dist come with a dual vac. system , one side of the vac. dia. retards base line timing while the other gives advance timing . The whole system was a pain in the drain . But once you had the base lines all set then ya hooked up all the vac . lines and plugged in the SMOOG ideal and set the ideal RPM's , this usually would bring the engine RPM's up around 150-200 RPM's higher . Then once you turned the key off the solenoid would allow the carb lingage to drop back to base line to reduce dieseling . I use to work at a Ford dealership back then . BUT when nobody was looking we would set them to RUN and forget about EPA . Little tricks like a BEE BEE in the retard line change the curve inside the dist. Add a few more degrees to the base timing , jet changes in the carbs , power valve changes .
