Yes, I pulled the distributor, removed the gear at the base, pulled the shaft out and cleaned the advance weights. The springs were weak and not advancing the timing. The real fix is to replace the distributor with a electronic one. But lubing the weights and changing the springs fixed it.
Reposting. I'd like to breath new life into this old thread hoping some of you still belong to this page. 1999 Capri 2.3l ford Motor. Having the same issue but I think I am one step further. I had an old issue where the boat would only fire while the key was in the crank position. Thanks to many...
