Just looks like a bunch of data in relation to a small set of engine speeds.

Did he print this out of CONSULT? Weird, never saw an option to print out the ECM input data.

I asked to advance the timing 2 degrees and when I got back in the car it was on the console. I was hoping for a more detailed report but this is what I have. Just said nothing was out of spec.

i do not see the values for timing in that link. did you see him adjust it 17 degrees btdc? by him stating nothing was out of spec, i would think he did not adjust since the timing when it was came in was in spec, just not as high as i can go.
