The SPOUT was moved on the 94-95 models I assume because of heat from the engine. I believe they are set at 10 degree from the factory (mine was a shade under 10). I had read somewhere that 16-18 was about the most you could advance. So I tried 14, the motor didn't ping but felt sluggish compared to 10. So after test driving I set it back to 12 it felt better but I can't tell if it was better than at 10. Anyway on my timing light it only flashed when the marks could be seen. Are you on the #1 wire? Frontmost on the passenger side. Also on my crankshaft it didn't have any marks other than what was indented on it from the factory 10-0-10-20-30 and it was rusty and hard to read.
