Default Re: Can I advance the timing a few degrees??

get a timing light. Do a google search or get a repair manual if it's a EFI model as it may need a wire bridged/earthed etc. set it maybe like 2 degrees before the factory setting.

And pinging, you should be worried. Decent engine damage can happen from pinging
