IP timing
I advanced the timing on the ip about 1/8 off the to lines. It does not smoke like it use to and runs better. My question is can i advance it a tad more? I do not have a temp gauge for exhaust.I just dont want to burn anything up. I use this truck daily for my landscaping business and it pulls a 18' trailer with tractors. It does blow black smoke on take offs and up hills but nothing at idle. Just trying to get a tad more power.
Not sure if i should start here but its a 87 f250 with 6.9. It has original injectors and IP. Should i change these first? would this help with power?
Thanks in advance
