A couple of weeks ago, I brought up my 300H carb adjustment difficulties for advice and the fact that I had difficulty adjust ing the idle to a steady 650 as the engine would "run away" and go up to 900 rpm, .i.e., the timing seemed unstable at 650. As suggested by somone on this list, I sent the distributor to the Philbin Group where it received an overhaul. They did a spectacular job. It came back while I was on vacation, but is now installed and it made a big difference, Idle speed around 650is now very stable. The engine runs better on the highway and on acceleration through the gears. Here is a curious thing: I very carefully punch marked the distributor base and the block before it left at the point where the timing was correct to help in installing it. Those marks were way off after overhaul. Not that it matters, but it is certainly ponderable as to the cause. It must be because the of breaker plate, new points etc. are a little different.
