why is my timing retarded? repost from the 700 board 200

The ignition control unit is at the upper right of the steering column.Pull the underdash panel and look up.Connector wire #7 org should show continuity to ground with an ohm meter at idle and slight resistance with the accelorator pressed.This checks the throttle switch adjustment and wiring.#12 Blk and #13 green go to the knock sensor.Disconnect the knock sensor and check #12/#13 at ECU with meter and it should show open.If thats OK then jumper Knck sensor connector and check for continuity between 12/13 at ECU.Theese test should be with the ignition OFF.Other inputs are RPM sensor,Coolant sensor,FI ECU,EGR sensor(if it has one).Good luck
