Why ???
On my '72, the decal under the hood that outlines the procedure to set the timing starts with:
1. Remove fuel gas tank cap
and ends with
6. ... and replace fuel tank cap
For what reason is removing the gas cap important ... what gives ????

Re: Why ??? (sray454)
I would guess something to do with a non-vented cap and the vapor recovery system. But what the exact effect it would have on timing, I do not know. More emission issues.
