Timing advance has nothing to do with the A/F ratio; what we're doing is advancing the distributor which makes the spark discharge earlier. In my case, 19 degrees of crankcase revolution BEFORE the piston reaches top dead center. Of course, there is always too much of a good thing, and with spark advance, you may get predetonation or lose power by introducing the spark too early. In stock form, the timing is set to around 15 degrees BTDC.
Too much of a good thing is true.

Everyone -- If you really want to tune your engine sometime, you'll need to know that to acess optimum power, all th fuel must be burned by 10 degrees BTDC.

Hmmm, I run 98 octane fuel so I'll have to give it a go. Anything for free is good for me!!

i have a question about timing...does your prelude have a red mark on the flywheel? and what about the degree it's at when you set the timing gun to "0 degree" is it right by the pointer?

all my flywheel has is a white cross like figure and when it's at "0 degree" on the timing gun with a wire in the jumper to bypass the ecu...it's at 3-4 degrees....

i cann't find a red mark that the helms is talking about....
