Recently had points replaced but found that lost power once warmed up. Fuel pump has been replaced, distributor appears all OK. It appears that once warmed up timing advances and keeps on advancing. Does this even if vacuum tubes have been clipped off. Mechanic and auto electrician are stumped. Any ideas what the problem might be and how to fix it?
