timing help

[v8eatr]

my ty is detonating i took it in an they set the timing but it still at about 30 degrees advanced when at idle and checked with a timing light. I went back and he said how he set the timing at 0 degrees. i was wondering if this is my problem(the way the timing was set) or do i have something else wrong. the motor was just rebuilt and i put new plugs wires, cap and rotor on and it still runs like crap. any help would be appreciated. :evil:

hahahahaha

dude, you have to unplug the ECM control over the timing to check it.
otherwise your just seeing the amount of timing the ECM is adding to your 0 setting.

there is a wire under the passenger side carpet, right under the dash, with a small plastic connector. unplug it, and then check your timing. i think its a tan wire..... or is it grey. damn i forget.
