:LOL:

Thanks for the all the info guys, I will try to put it to use.

I always feel confident after reading about this stuff, but it fades when I try to put it to use. I guess these things aren't an exact science, so if I try to follow advice and things start to not seem right, I don't have the experience to know what way to go. Like dmjlambert knowing what he heard, and that he needed to retard timing to fix it. Basically I lack experience; Give me a number and I can set it to that, if that number isn't exactly right for my scenario I get lost.
