yes that is cam timming, it has nothing to do with ignition timming, which needs to be set at 10 BTDC with the spout connector unplugged. DW

No, its a single wire, the second wire down on the harness as a matter in fact...Follow second wire down from harness on dist and you should find a connector or plug on it somwhere "this is the spout connector"...Disconnect it then set timing ......

then reconnect it......

My bronco was stalling because base timing was not advanced far enough,,
all those sensors advance and retard the timing and if your base timing is off you will stall out all the time when the PCM retards the timing.....
