...it runs pretty well.
Consider: 1987 B2, 2.9l, timing mark physically checked for TDC, and has a white mark showing 10^BTDC...
Set the timing there as per both maintenance books and several web sites, truck runs OK until ~35, then gets gutless.
Re-set the timing so it's at 16^BTDC and it runs great. Passes emisions, everything.
Any conjectures as to why..?
