After around 1500 miles or so of driving, I got tired of the 009 lag, and decided to install a vac advance distributor back into the car. This is a electronic ignition unit so it gives the car a whole new feel!
I don't really have much else planned for the 74 Super at this point. With that said, I think she may be done! I've been driving it quite a bit these past 7 months, even with the bad weather over the winter. It's certainly a rare sight on these modern roads, but it does pretty well in 2023 all things considered.

I love the Pertronix stuff. Used them on Datsun Z-Cars for years

This has really been helpful on getting it to run right.

Now that’s a term I have not heard since Senior Year Powersports and Diesel Technology Lab at Vocational School…. Probably 100 years ago now… “Stoichiometric Mixture”. Thanks for that knowledge refresher! Great video

I had a 74 Bug. My first used car I bought on my own. I think I paid only $500 and it had a fairly new paint job.

Oh I certainly remember those days! I had at least 3 that I can remember over the years that cost $50 and ran. Another Baja that was $200 and had new off road tires. Those were the days!

Maybe do an internet search for gas stations in your area that sell ethanol- free gasoline. They're cropping up all over as the popularity of it increases.

It sure would help to have 100% gas in this. The poor 48HP engine has a hard enough time with hills, then you add in garbage corn gas to the mix and it's more like 41HP.
