timing and engine/head temps., what's the affect? Options

[toon1]

With the type IV timing set right it's about 7.5 to 8* at idle. Has anyp0ne noticed a difference in temps if the timing is advanced at idle?

Reading the MM on the MS site, it say's, if you retard the timing at idle it will produce lower emissions by creating more heat due to the unburnt fuel left in the system.

If retarding the timing makes things hot,can advancing it make things cooler or more stable, temp wise at idle?

With MS it is possible to advance the timing at idle but still keep a 27* cap at the 3500 mark

Thank's Mark, I have a HTS on the way it will be here on Fri.. it's the Dakota digital Odesy II.

I will definetly do some testing once it's in place.


BTW, a while back we talked about a higher pressure fuel system. I almost have one complete. It, unfortunatly will only cater to the MS guy's(high imp. injectors). It will use all of the stock hardware with the exception of the fuel rail. It's close to being done, I have not had the time at work to finish it and have been working on my MS system in the teener. I have to pull the motor out of the car, the #3 ex. seat has to be fixed. This will give me the time I need to finish the project.
