bumo timing? Reply #1 – May 14, 2007, 06:37:34 AM Unplug the spout connector, get a timming light, take a 13mm/.5"socket and crack lose the dristributor bolt, (with the motor off) Fire the car up, then using the timming light pointed at your harmonic balancer, adjust the timming to around 14*. turn off motor, and tighten the bolt and plug the spout connector back in. Now go enjoy filling up with premium fuel, :) (actually you might be able to get away with regular fuel, I did)To help see the 14* mark, while the motor is off crawl under the car and mark it on the balancer with white out Quote Selected

bumo timing? Reply #9 – May 16, 2007, 12:51:07 AM Whoa! Make sure when you do this, you check the level of your ignition conductivity fluid BEFORE bumping your timing. If it's low, you could twist up your distributor like a pretzel. Quote Selected
