...how do i time it, my manual says unplug a connector on the dist, well the 4 wire connector when i unplug it the car doesnt start so i can't time it lol, also if anyone has the specs for ignition timing its a 91 Sunturd 2.0 OHC automatic, i put a Z hood on the car so i don't have the emissions sticker on the hood anymore
please and thanks
Jump the ALDL connector under the dash like you were checking a code.

You can let it idle but don't drive it.

yea i adjusted the timing, according to my timing light it was out about 8 degrees, it still didnt fix my missfire/@!#$ty idle but it fixed the hesitation when its cold, anyone know why it idles like it has a miss to it, only in idle, and it won't stall, i've changed every tune up part on it since it needed it and nothing helped
have you run a compression test? how about testing the ignition module or TPS. it could also be a weak engine groung.
