Timing issue?
My car is hard to start when cold. It has a choppy idle going from 1000 rpm to 1400rpm. Ive checked TPS and all other sensors. It has a CEL after running for a couple min. I checked the codes and it says everything is fine no codes.
I tried to set ignition timing. With plug on fire wall grounded timing set to 5 degree BTDC. Still slightly rough idle. Unground plug and check timing and it retards it another 15 degrees or so.
lil lost and confused any input would be great. Thanks guys
