YEP gin is right. The PCM will set a "last known" good value. You want to beat the PCM? pull the short plug @ the distributor, set 34-38 TDC and leave out the short plug. However, make sure you have some GOOD gas in the tank! And don't let the RPM's drop to much. This is good for out of the hole grunt, but you invite DETONATION! any internal combustion engines arch enemy. "****DISCLAMER NOTE****" DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME, if you don't know your doing! You could potentially DESTROY your motor buy doing this.
