I took the advice that I read in this forum and set my ignition timing to 12 deg BTDC. When I did, it could feel one of the spark plug wires tug (number 8 I think). When I was finished, the car seemed to have a very small skip that it didnt have before. Also had idle issues that where new.
I went to my local drag stip and I lost about 3 tenths in 1/4 mile times -- that was not what I was hoping for.
Do you think I damaged a spark plug wire? Would retarding the timing cause any of these symptoms. I thought the only possible issue would be pre-detonation -- no sign of it.
