advanced timing issue
my friend has 85 x-cab 4wd sr5 with a 22re he advanced the timing a little it runs much better now but now when u step on the brakes it idles up and down cause the idle is a little higher than it use to be is there any way to fix that with out going back to stock timing

check the idle adjustment screw I have the same issue and found it backs itself out and gives the up and down idle you speak of I think teflon tape on it will hold it where it needs to stay I will let you know in a day or two.

the first thing i think of is a vacuum leak. the brake booster would by where id check first then all the lines. maybe double check the timing. idk just thinking outloud.

if you set the idle to high on a 22re it will do the same thing some sort of sensor or something im just wondering if theirs some way to fool it to think its right

do you know what the idle is at? i mean timing, sorry. being a 85 xtra cab owner myself i wouldn't be suprised this could possibly a separate issue.

this may be a stupid question but does he still have the diagnostic plug shorted? i dont remember what its called the one in the engine bay you have to short out to set the timing.

ok if we go back to stock setting what would be a good place to set the time with a header and full exhaust no cat

i would put it at 5-6 degrees with the test jumper in. mine is at 6 maybe 7 and idles at about 800 and starts right up. no cat new exhaust and k&n drop in filter.
