Default Re: FSI Distributor

I hold the dizzy in place with that screw - have done for years. I use it to "fine tune" the timing. If I can induce the engine to ping, I retard the timing a smidge (technical term) by loosening the screw and turning the distributor body a little and retighten the screw (and lock nut).
