Tuning a B20E 140-160

"I'm guessing that the carbs won't adjust properly until I get the timing more precise."

Very good chance that this is true - you really can't adjust the carbs until the timing has been dialed in. And if you do get a good idle, you'll probably have to re-do all the carb adjustments once the timing's set properly.

Best,
