TFI timing does not advance (it retards)
Posted: Sat Apr 17, 2010 6:50 pm
'67 Mustang with '92 Mustang 302 TFI ignition
2.885 code
MS2
Narrow band o2'S
Wideband reads 14.7 at idle and can be adjusted using VE table.
Loaded a base file for TFI as in Mega-manual.
Starts/idles fine.
Timing light shows 17 degrees of advance; same as MS timing wizard.
As engine is rev'd timing gradually retarded, not advanced.
At 2300 RPM engine stumbles and 3000 rpm timing goes to almost ZERO.
MS logger shows 30 degrees advance but timing light shows it's retarded toward nearly zero degrees.
Do I need to update to a more nwer code version?
The code page is totally confusing to me and i'm lost on it:

How do I know if I need to load newer code?
Suggestions?
