'84 F250 6.9 in the sig line.
So, I was checking my timing yesterday with the Ferret adaptor and Actron digital timing light. Its showing 6.5 degrees at idle and at 2000 rpm. Theres no advance. The RPMs and strobe all stayed steady so I believe i'm getting a good reading. Do I need a new IP or is there something that can be done to fix the advance. Whats the timing at idle supposed to be? The pickup seems to run well and starts fine. I'm getting 15 mpgs mixed. I do get a good bit of white/greyish smoke under hard accel.
