Too much timing?

@Mattax

Yep, you have to tune for what you have. If there is significant RPM drop in gear, you have an issue somewhere. If a stockisk 318-340-360 engine won't idle in N/P at 700 rpm, something is up. Even slightly cammed engines should idle below 750 without issue. It's all in the tune and finding the right mix.

If an auto trans in in play, do the same exact thing that you would in N/P, except in gear. Find where the engine wants timing. It's not rocket surgery! It does take some time, a little math and some elbow grease to get it right. The benefits are huge.

And a lean mixture smells just as bad out the pipes as a rich one, sometimes WORSE.
