Timing advancing
Im trying to set my timing by ear and had a quick question, after you jumper the Te1 and E1 and the idle smooths out at the lower rpm does the engine rev when you advance or retard?

I think it was, i took out the distributer and rotated it one tooth. Got the timing to half way between the 5 and 8 mark, runs soooooo much quieter now. thx for the help guys.
The PO probably replaced the dist and forgot to check the timing, hopfully that will help my crappy MPG
