Need to check again but it may be that there isn't any vacuum getting through to the vacuum advance on my Metro. Basically there are two vacuum nozzles on the carb - a larger bore one that feeds the air intake hot/cold changeover flap via the thermostatic switch in the air filter housing - and a smaller bore one that feeds the vacuum advance via a thermostatic switch in the coolant system (= no vacuum advance until engine is warm). If the smaller bore nozzle is not providing any vacuum, can I just put a T-piece on the bigger bore nozzle and split the vacuum from it to supply both vacuum advance and hot/cold air intake flap, or is it not that simple?
