How do I check the advance? Just watch if the vacuum rod returns back to its original position after revving?

I would be more apt to believe you have a problem with your linkage Or you have an intake leak

If I spray starting fluid around the base of the manifold it would rev if it had a leak right?

It would change, up or down. Also, sometimes intake leaks make weird moaning noises.

Yeah I know what you’re talking about, I miss aligned one of th gaskets on the intake and it was hissing so I push it down and retightened the manifold and it went away

Yup!
Make sure everything in the distributor moves freely.
