[@auteurfiddler8706]

As you found, slotting the cap doesn't change the timing. It DOES help INDEX the cap if that is needed to prevent cross fire. I could see it being used on 1980's cars with radical timing due to dual pickups for smog stuff. If the burn marks are at the leading or trailing edge of an aluminum contact distributor cap's contents, that is a hint it could be indexed. Cutting view holes in and old cap and putting the timing light on the cap with the engine running can see which way you might want to index it. Clear caps help on this. You could section a cap and but it on with the engine off and put the no 1 piston at TDC to get a rough idea, too. As for the vacuum advance, there is none at idle since it is Ported, rather than Manifold. Assuming you used the recommended port on the carb. Rev it up and see if you feel vacuum coming from the hose. Also, put some suction on the vacuum port on the distributor and see if the plate moves. Or see if the diaphragm is leaking vacuum inside the can. Moving the wires on the cap is going to change your spark timing 360/8 = 45 degrees at the distributor = 90 degrees at the crank. So, not an option. Why don't you put a socket on the crank and rotate the engine back and forth and watch the inside of the distributor to see how much slack you have in the timing chain? I have heard of guys taking a fuel pump from one common engine and having the arm replaced to make if fit on an engine type where no replacement fuel pumps are available. But your pump was working fine for now. Keep up the great content.

[@Sleeperdude]

OK thank you I must’ve had it on the wrong port because it did have full vacuum at idle

[@auteurfiddler8706]

@@Sleeperdude Yes. All cars from around 1960-72 that I know of have it on ported ( only when throttle is open), You must have had it on a manifold vacuum port. Which, as you saw, give too much timing at idle. And make it hard to set the timing or mixture screws. You, on ported vacuum, should have had zero vacuum at idle and moderate vacuum when you rev it up. (From 73 to 85 they use both ports and a bunch of valves and solenoids to balance between them. ) Use the suction test on the vacuum can before you hook up the hose. If it won't hold a vacuum, replace the can. I got just the can for about 20 dollars at the parts store (for a different old car). As for those windows, I have to believe the vent windows and the main windows use different fuses, and relay and circuit breaker. You need the wiring diagram from the Factory Service Manual FSM to find them in the car. Sometimes some enthusiast car sites have PDF files of the FSM or at least the wiring diagrams. The full wheel covers look good. Just put a bit of white rustolem on the spots missing paint. I had the white last a couple of years on a car sitting outside when the other colors just peeled off or faded off. OK here is a redneck tip. Use propane to replace the missing R12 and see if you can get the AC charged up. It works so well they have a conspiracy to make you think it doesn't. No it isn't dangerous. Every car in Germany and most structures use propane/butane or similar. The overpriced Dupont monopoly trash we use is prohibited over there. I will delete this last paragraph after you read it. :)

From someone who rode and drove one new, it was like you never left your living room sofa. Here is the thing , you are in possession of a rare bird because those cars were junk from the factory, always and I do mean always ,something wrong with them. The cheaper (less options) on the Ford or Mercury the better off you were. Lincoln’s were loaded with options. A friend had a 67 convertible, now there is trouble. In weighs in at 6300 lbs. and if the top goes down and stores itself in the trunk, God just performed a miracle. All my pops family were Ford die hards but I became a Cadillac die hard. Brought my first one at age 16, A well used and abused 58 Fleetwood. It had 158000 or so miles and still was very quite and would cruise down the road at 90 mph and never get out of breath, if you could keep that ethyl gas in it. It was not a go on a date car. Love your channel you are lucky in many ways. God Bless!

Really glad to hear you still have the Lincoln. The '66 my dad bought from my uncle had an exhaust manifold leak. My uncle was a mechanic and I spent a few Saturdays one summer helping him take apart the engine to replace the gasket. The car also had an aftermarket electric fuel pump that was a problem it was replaced with the correct fuel pump. This was back in the early '80s and after it was fixed it was such a cool car for me to drive to school in the 11th grade. Brings back great memories. Looking forward to your next episode with the Lincoln!

You asked about the speedometer design, it operates with a drum similar to the Ford model A but it’s mounted horizontally and runs the length of the lens across the instrument cluster so that a red bar indicates the speed. Almost like a thermometer. It’s pretty neat for 1960’s technology. One more thought, liberal amounts of vaseline will moisturize the leather seat covers just as well as fancy conditioners. It’s also the main component in dielectric compound sold for battery terminals.

The window and seat motors in 60's cars are usually serviceable. I pulled my 67 Cadillacs apart cleaned them up. Cleaning grease film off the commutator fixed some, others the plug ends rusted off so I soldered new wire ends. Then I cleaned the plugs to the switches and popped apart the switches themselves (careful of the small springs) cleaned them. Also, use caution when removing window motors wedge windows from falling. The mechanism can cut your fingers off or trap you, there are heavy springs to aid in lifting the heavy glass. It's best to have others hold the window so it can't move while you remove and install the motors. saved me buying 8 window motors.

The reason you are having trouble with the timing is you need to get the base of the distributor moving. Just moving the cap the points are still going off at the original time point and the cap is not letting it send the spark out correctly. So get that base moving and good luck and God bless

[@Sleeperdude]

Ok thank you

[@johnferrell7979]

@@Sleeperdude you're welcome. I enjoy your videos keep up the good work

[@hashprompt]

Yes. Timing is the moment the points open. For that reason having the points gap set too wide will advance the timing (slightly) as they start to open too soon. So check the gap before setting the timing, if you get that base moving.

[@M_Phipps0520]

Yes and unhooking the vacuum only pulls timing under acceleration

[@tomhutchins1046]

@@M_Phipps0520 There are 2 types ported and manifold vacuum. Ported advances the timing when you open the throttles due to a stronger signal above the butterfly's and the manifold vacuum drops. Manifold vacuum advances the timing during cruise when the manifold vacuum is high and retards during excel when the manifold vacuum drops. Disconnecting the vacuum on both setups will eliminate the advance . From the description that car is set up with ported vacuum not a real good setup running off manifold vacuum is much better. You get the advance at cruise for mileage with manifold vacuum and it drops under acceleration to reduce ping. But the distributor has to be recurved to use it that way. Some had dual vacuum advance pots trying to get the best of both versions at the same time.

I once had a 1966 high compression engine. It also had a huge problem with dieseling on shut off. I had to leave it in gear then shut if off to actually get it to stop running. Someone told me that this was a huge risk of blowing a hole in the top of a piston - don't know. Another told me that there was probably a thick deposit of carbon on the top of the pistons and/or top of the combustion chamber raising the compression even higher. I tried everything, additives to the fuel, even replaced the timing chain and gears. Ultimately, it stated missing real bad and I decided to do a valve job. I pulled the heads, and sure enough there was a very thick layer of carbon on the cylinder tops and top of the chambers. I cleaned all that off myself and had the valve seats replaced and a 3-angle valve job done since I was at it. The difference was dramatic, it ran like a new car after that. Great video.

That car is awesome! Wasn’t sure I liked the white walls but seeing it driving down the road changed my mind! Definitely worth saving!

Brilliant. Fabulous inheritance for children. Fabulous investment for children should selling be the option. These fabulous wheels are a sublime line and length from Lincoln Ford. The 462 a fabulous engine. Easily one of the finest set of wheels on the road-saw one this very day in New Zealand, all black top to bottom, a 67. Very very rare here and very very valuable everywhere.

I discovered you today, 4/9/22, thumbing through videos...I love Lincolns and I watched the one where you pulled this one out of TN dirt and trailered it home. Your humor, wisdom and knowledge are infectious. Thanks for rescuing one of America's classics! I'm a fan!
