Static Timing PAMCO

I am trying to static time my PAMCO. I have one clip for the timing light on the yellow wire at the coil, the other grounded to the engine.

The light stays on regardless, doesn't dim or flicker in any position. Mechanical advancer is super clean and good.

Make sure the Mechanical advance unit is not out 180* It's easy the do this when you take them apart. Flip it and see if it helps. It may also be the pamco. I have never used one be they can go bad.
