Need Fast Help 700

posted by  someone claiming to be Bernie on  Thu Apr 8 18:23 CST 2004 [RELATED]

Hey guys,

Thanx for the responses.
I got it under control and yes I used the nub, not the painted mark in the little circle. You were all correct on the assumptions.
I tried the 12 o'clock position on the cam (2 teeth forward) and the car would just hunt and hunt for idle. Then I backed off 1 tooth and I swear the car is peppier. I checked with a timing light and that out the cam 20degrees BTDC. Put it back where it originally was and it 10 which is factory spec.
Even though it was at 20, it seemed just quicker and more responsive

Any thoughts on the?

Cheers
Bernie
