Can turning the distributor cap slightly on golf mk3 improve performance?
Dannytopham
NO, turning the distributor cap at all on any vehicle will throw the timing off.. if you know what your doing and use a timing light you can advance or decrease the timing depending on how exactly you want the engine to respond.

Intel graphics media accelorator for mobile 3d settings?
controls open GL 3d settings for gma. asynchronous flip-turn to on to disable v-sync-on will improve performance off will try to correct tearing in video. triple buffering turn to off for better performance on for better quality .depth buffer bit depth. 16 bit to improve performance though some games and applications require it to be set at 24, so i recommend leaving it at default or 24. force s3tc texture compression-turning this on will improve performace by compressing textures and using less video memory on rendering textures. leave it off for slightly better quality. force fxt1 texture compression is the same.driver memory footprint. turn to high if you want to draw more system memory to slightly improve performance but no better quality no matter where it is set. so i recommend it to be on high unless you don't have a lot of ram memory. texture color depth 32 will improve quality. 16 improve performance though 32 may be required for some games and applications so i recommend setting this to default or 32. lastly anisotropic filtering will improve quality when set to on, you will get better performance with this turned off. I hope i was of some help, Bren
How do you know what degree you are turning the distributor on 350 Chevy with 383 stroker?
You can monitor distributor degrees with a timing light.
How do you set the timing on a 1970 Chevy 350?
Use a timing light and turning the distributor. Timing marks (numbers) are in the crankshaft pulley area and the line is on the balancer (next to pulley). Make sure you disconnect the vacumm line to the advance on the distributor while timing and plug the hose while timing. 4BTDC auto trany, TDC standard trany. If the motor is old & worn you can leave the distributor slightly loose & go for a drive and time it manually (with advance hooked up & up to operation temp) to where it won't ping on acceleration and has decent performance.

The way the rotor rotates retards. If the distributor turns clockwise, then turning the distributor clockwise retards the timing.
How do you advance the timing?
Normally by turning the distributor, in conjunction with a strobe timing light
Which way do you turn the distributor on a ford 302 to advance the timing?
Loosen the distributor hold-down bolt. Standing in front of the vehicle looking at the engine turning the distributor clockwise advances the timing. Turning the distributor counter-clockwise is retarding the timing. Hold the distributor steady while tightening the hold-down bolt. Factory hold-down bolt needs a 1/2 inch wrench.
Engine oil pump in use when?
The oil pump is driven by the distributor shaft, so it's turning whenever the engine is turning.
