Re: Setting timing

I've only had one TBI truck that never gave me any trouble so I'm not schooled in trouble-shooting them. But I'd start with checking injector spray patterns. Has it sat up much recently? After you pat the gas and get it up to a 700 rpm idle is it smooth? Also they're real picky about fuel pressure being in spec to run right. EGR malfunction is also common.
