Which way do you turn the disty to advance? I'm not doing anything to the engine, I'm just trying to make sense of something in my head.

Opposite the direction that the rotor tuns right?

First thing I thought of-

"Left, right?"

"Right"

"Right like we're going right or right like we're going left?"

"I don't know now you've got me all confused!"
