just wondering how much if any ya'll have bumped the timing up in the lower rpms to help with idle and surge??
I raised mine 2 degrees in the 400-1200 cells and it seemed to help alot on the warm start ups.. still stalls every now and then, but no where like before..
has anyone added 4 or more?

The warms starts got better to me when i added 1-2 degrees of timing so it definitly helped me there some. Now every 1 outta 10 will stall or surge on warm fireup instead of like 6 outta 10before. I didnt know if i needed to add 1-2 more degrees or not in the 400-1200rpms
