99 Carb/timing woes

OK, I'm very frustrated at the moment! '74 saab 99L w/50,000 miles 2.0L motor z/s SD 175 carb. factory timing spec. says 17BTDC. @800 rpm w/dist. vacuum off. Car runs for SH*T at this spec, coughs back through the air filter under accel load, fine on decel, but runs great at 25-30 BTDC The damper on the carb is working fine. I tore apart the carb, everything looks fine. What's up?! Am I running too lean? do i have the wrong spec? I have never owned a carb car so this is kind of unfamiliar territory. HELP!!
