I have just installed the Bosch electronic ignition from a 75 244. While everything works well, and the thought of never to have to adjust the timing every now and then is very welcoming, this unit that I got has a vacuum retard. My points and condensor distributor is a vacumm advance unit. I am guessing the only 75 244 electronic distributors are only available from cars bound for Canada?

Presently, I have the vacuum retard disconnected. Any way of retrofitting the vacuum advance from the old points and condensor distributor?

Many thanks in advance.
