No problemo... I excel in modesty.

... if changing air/fuel related components, go back to basics like static timing.

Cool. I'm very curious about the latest EFI setups. Give us some before and after MPG numbers once the computer dials everything in, please!

FYI you will get later shifts by adjusting vacuum modulator clockwise. Try one turn at a time and if you bottom out the adjuster and still are not happy you can always mod a slightly longer pin (or buy a longer one w/ different stripe.)

Hio I had issues setting timing on initial startup, while the light clip was on #1 it appeared to be firing for every cylinder. Was at the plug end and not touching any other wires. Probably just a cheap light. I really need to invest in a quality dial back. No issues setting the 2nd go round.

I'll let u know. It is now running how it should have at first. I did look inside my modulator; it's not adjustable, no need to now though
