Re: 73 Ghia no idle.

Finally traced the problem. The vacuum advance was leaking. Ended up being cheaper to replace the whole distributor with a 009 than get a new advance. That helped but did not fix it entirely because that created a new problem that the carb and distributor were not compatible. Ended up blocking off the hole in the throttle plate to create more vacuum per instructions at Aircooledtech.com and that did it.
