So who is the blonde?!?! Nice picture/detail about timing, except you forgot to mention the part about taking the wire out of the diagnostic box when you turn the engine off to take the timing light off. You can also play with the timing some and advance it even more than the 10 degrees, but you will need a different timing light, one with the timing adjuster on the timing light itself. I have mine set at 15 degrees btdc and running regular. I should try premium and see how much I can still advance the timing. It really picks up the power by doing so, but be very very careful not to over do it.
