Off a tooth? Timing
258 w/ Mopar MPI
I finally got a chance to hook up a timing light to my jeep (my first time)
and I found that at idle I'm running 14 to 16 degrees BTDC. Now, since it
was hooked up to a DRB II and removed 6 degrees, should I be running at
around 8 degrees BTDC at idle since the factory setting is 14 degrees BTDC?
Thanks,
bill

Re: Off a tooth? Timing
Duhhhh Duhhhh !!!!
I get it bllsht.....
I'm waiting to get in.
Called for the last three days to get an appt but can't.
They are very busy and Larie wasn't in til yesterday.
Meanwhile I'm going ahead with whatever I can.
Do you have an answer to the question?
If the timing was retarded by 6 degrees and the factory setting of the kit
is 14 degrees BTDC, shouldn't it stand to reason that when I put the light
on it at idle it should read somewhere around 8 degrees BTDC?
I'm reading between 14 to 16 degrees BTDC.

Re: Off a tooth? Timing
On every car's computer there's a electrical plug that when pull
will throw it into the limp mode, that will allow you to read the
initial timing accurately with a light, find yours. I also believe
there's something wrong with the location of your crank position sensor.
At any rate if you had paid yourself ten cent an hour you would have
been far ahead of the game if got professional help in the first place.
