Hey guys, I've a 73 bug.. decided to put an accuspark dizzy on, I time it to 30deg at 3000rpm and it's fine, let it idle and it drops to 25deg.. instead of the 5-10 deg a usual beetle does..
Any help would be grand

How tight are the wires to the Accuspark unit? Maybe the baseplates on the dizzy cannot move.

Did you get an SVDA one (with vacuum advance) or a 009 style?
Have you tried timing it at 10 degrees static and then see what it does?

Svda dizzy.
Wires are tight, but not restrictive to the diźzy movements.
Either I'm being thick or I've been told wrong but can you statically time the accuspark/leccy ignition? I've had it at 10degrees on idle with a timing light but it runs like wibblepoo :/ doesn't advance to 30 degrees..

Try sucking on the vactube and watch what your plate does. Stick your tongue on the end when you have sucked a vac onto it and see if it holds vac. sounds to me like your vac can ain't advancing far enough. Either that or your vac takeoff is on the wrong place on your carb and the butterflies aren't shutting the vac port.
