- I can't recall. Which direction makes the car run hot?? If the timing is too advanced or too retarded?? The reason I ask, and I have not checked the timing this AM, I, with the help of Kevin and Rob

- Yes. Either way will make things run hotter. Too far advanced and the engine is fighting itself (gases expanding while piston is still trying to compress), and has to work harder to get you going. To

- Possible clue. You just put in the new wiring harness, and you have a 1500 model midget, right? On the old harness, were you bypassing the the resistance wire to the coil, and running a non-ballast c
