How do you adjust the vacuum advance on a ford 302 distributor?

>you don't adjust the vaccuum advance. you adjust the distributor. then when engine is running the vaccuum advance will work automatically to the needs of the engine< As a matter of fact, the Ford vacuum advance is easily adjustable. Put a 1/8" Allen wrench through the open of the vacuum advance canister where the vacuum hose goes. Screw it in to slow the rate of advance and screw it out to speed it up. I think it works on a spring preload system.
