[DeTomaso] Ignition truble

Is it the original Ford damper?  It may have slipped.  That would explain
the timing slipping.  It wouldn't explain the misfiring, though.

Hi!
On my first drive this summer with my Pantera it started to misfire and lost
power.  Tried to change the spark plugs and the cables but same result.  On
friday we checked the ignition timing and it showed 0 degrees.  I don`t
understand that because the distributor was not loose and we timed it to 30
degrees when we had it in the dyno last year.  We timed it back to 30
degrees and it became better but I can feel it is something wrong when I
drive it.  It has not full power and has a small klicking sound in the left
exhaust.
I run it with an MSD Billett distributor and a MSD 6AL ignition box.
Can it be the distributor pin who is giving up slowly?
Anybody??
