Congrats. You did not mention this in the verbiage but some owners of "late" model A4's do not realize that they are sometimes winterizing only the exhaust manifold thru the by-pass hose. My only thought was with the difficulty in getting the engine to start you may have not run it enough to get to temperature "closing" the t-state and or clamping the by pass hose forcing the glygol thru the block? Just a precautionary thought.

The distributor advance is located underneath the plate that the electronic ignition module is located on.
Under there you will find some springs and some weights. These all need to be able to move freely. A little light lubricating coil will suffice if it all looks pretty clean.
Otherwise, you may wish to take it apart, clean it up and possibly replace the springs - they are available from Moyer but you need to be sure you get the correct springs for your distributor. A call to Moyer is recommended.
