Michael;
Just advance it until you hear pinging under hard acceleration and then
back it off until it stops. This will require you to reset idle
speed.PITA. I could not tell the difference in performance on a properly
tuned engine. I think benifits are felt if you are compensating for a
badly worn or out of tune engine.
Drive Safely & Good Luck
