looking for some one in the st louis area who could set my cam angle sensor.


i just did a 6 bolt swap and i dont know how to do the CAS and looking for some one who could do it for me in the STL area.

i dont have the timeing cover on the motor but when i looked on these fourms it seems i didnt need it.

RRE Instructions


This is very easy to do....check it out and give it a wack.

i dont have a data logger is this required?

Set the base timing:
1. Connect a timing light to battery power (+ and -) and the Number 1 spark plug.

2. Connect a data logger to the car and display timing advance and RPM

3. Allow the car to come up to temp. Coolant 212 deg F, 750 RPM +/- 100, Fan's should cycle on and off

4. Read the timing from the crank with no load on the motor. Each mark is 5 deg no fans, no lights, no A/C etc.

5. Adjust the position of the CAS until the readings from the TIMING LIGHT, match the timing advance displayed on the data logger. This is "stock" advance. If you have a mild setup with stock cam's you'll pass the smog inspection if your ECU timing and crank timing reads 5 deg +/-3 deg BTDC at idle

6. Add additional timing at own risk, (Timing light advance) - (ECU advance) = (Base Timing Shift) see: "The bad"

7. Tighten the 12mm nuts/bolts that hold the 1G CAS

What issues would it cause if its not set right?

If it is not set right, I believe the ECU will constantly be trying to pull timing am I correct on that? Also, shouldn't he be okay without a logger so long as he grounds the timing ground and gets timing inline with spec?

I think I've narrowed my problem down to that. Bought this car not running. Finally got it to fire up but it will only stay running for 5-10 seconds. I'll post a new thread about it but just wondering if that could at least be a contributing factor
