Help with timing!!!! Reply #1 – November 26, 2006, 11:18:02 AM I'm not sure what IAC stands for but you do unhook the vacuum advance when setting timing. On premium gas most of our cars are good for up to 14 degrees of initial advance. Quote Selected

Help with timing!!!! Reply #7 – November 26, 2006, 07:58:59 PM Actually the"SpOUT" (spark output) is the connector that plugs into the TFI module on the distributor. Leave that plugged in. There is a 2 wire shorting plug next to it on the same harness that you unplug. Quote Selected

Help with timing!!!! Reply #11 – November 26, 2006, 10:38:33 PM It should be. If not it will be right there. It's just that little plug. Remove it, set your timing and plug it back in. Quote Selected
