I found the tan/blk wire as sone as I pulled off the glovebox, and it was obvious since it was wrapped by itself on the outside of the computer cables. I pulled it apart, set the timing, turned off the truck, and reconnected it, and then the timing advanced almost to the end of the timing marks.

Thanks for the help.

Now to my next problem. I can hear the TBI "howling" on accelleration. It didnt used to do that, its a sound I would remember. And at higher speeds like 50-65 the engine is surging somewhat. I can feel the rapid power pulses like 2 a second or so. Thats new. I checked the connectors on the engine, they all seems intact. I didnt crawl under to the O2 sensor yet. I dont find any vacuu leaks, or hear any either. I have heard about ground problems. I put the temp probe between cylinder 1 and 3 in with teflon sealant, and this probe only has a single green wire, so maybe it does not have a ground path.

Any insights appreciated.
