thats pretty wierd... i will fall back to the AIR Fuel thing... and is that 25 degrees of timing b4 the SPOUT PIC is put back in... or the vacuum is reinstalled... whichever it is??? so you are looking at like... 45 degrees???

04 Mach1 · 02-28-2006, 08:38 PM

Do you have a chip or tuner in it? If so did the global spark adder get a negative number.

Yes, he has recently put a TwEECer R/T on it.

when you set it at 10, and plug in spout, what does computer "advance" it to? 20-25 sounds about good. If it's still 10, then it's not good. It's not your balancer man. it's in that timing advance program/curve.

If TDC is actually TDC and the idle is around 18-22 then I would lean toward the timing chain and cam advance/retard.

What about a sloppy distributor or Thick Flim spark module on the side of the distributor. Those stupid things can do some weird things when they go out,
