is it possible that if the vacume advance is not working it could cause
flooding?

No. But other ignition issues could. Flooding usually is a symptom of a cold
start circuit malfunction.

Does this motor have something called "trigger points" and if so, are
they implicated?

Seems to me there was 450 here about 4 - 6 weeks ago with a similar
problem and I vaguely recall something about "trigger points".
