You can lock it in timing mode by just unplugging the tps, turn on car, rev
it pass 3krpm 3 times and it's set. that's how simple. the thing i am
confused about is
ww.se-r.net says pulling the distributor to the front of the car is to
advance and toward windshield is retard. That's what my cousin told me too
when he set his integra. But when I used the timing light, it actually
advances when I push it toward windshield and retards pulling it forward. So
is SE-R.net wrong or my timing gun?
