The plug gap is .028"-.032". Do you have your vacuum advance hooked up correctly, it should go to the #2 carb body, not the carb boot. Also might want to check that the vacuum advance plate is not jumping around when applying throttle. You can observe it with the left ignition cover off, there is a bearing in there that gets dry and can cause the light on the throttle symtom you are describing.2H7 (79) owned since '89
