Subject:      Timing Adjust = loss of power?
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

Hi,

My mechanic was trying to get my 87 to pass smog and
adjusted the timing back to specs.  Apparently it was
5 degrees to advanced (I might have set it that way on
purposes, I cant remember).  Anyway, she seems much
weaker this morning, slower on inclines, and a
complete dog of the line...

Would 5 degrees advanced give better power?  If so,
Ill reset it after smog, cause in the end, its all
about sppppeeeeeeeed!

Thanks,

Jeff
