I tried to set my fuel timing buy following the information in the link below. After fallowing his directions exactly to a "T" it didn't seem to change a thing. With the volt meter connected to negative and number 3 pin on the camshaft sensor set it to like .2 volts. According to the guys link you want to set it as close to 0 but not over 5. Im not sure if I had my volt meter set in the wrong volt setting or what. (fairly new to reading meters) Anyone have any information to help my try doing this again before taking it to the shop.

Follow the advice of the post right after it. Theres no telling where that info actually came from. I've heard of it before but in my pinion at least it's more width it to you to do the manual "get it close" procedure then take it to the dealer and pay the 49.99 to have it dialed in

Ok I have a small mechanic shop here in my town that I'm going to take it to because I'm pretty sure he has the computer. I just don't want to have to trailer it anywhere because after it warms up it wont run with a ****.
