Re: Advancing ignition timing
hey dude, yea i just did this last friday, i did not use a timing gun... YON CAN REALLY FEEL IT .. after about 35-40mph it feels the same but there is a quicker pedal responce .. i ripped a nice skid mark on my street the first time i drove it under advanced timing.
- things i found out befor i did it
1) you do it with the car ON
2)moving it the slitest bit will have some what of an effect
3) dont use cheep fuel .. ppl have been saying use 89(at the least) or 93 .. personaly i never give my max anything but 93

I got these using that link in the top right, I can't remember what it's called though, "find" "look around" "go through old posts" "archives", I think it's something like that

most people say you will notice a slight increase but nothing amazing; it's free (if you can rent a timing light or find someone who has one) and is pretty easy to do
read those links and that should answer most of your questions about it
good luck
