The FSM said when you set the ignition timing you need to ground a green 1-pin connector..



Does anybody know what color the wire that goe to that geen 1-pin connector????

I know that when you set the TPS you ground a orange wire. Is that the same wire you grounf when you set the timing???



Thanks for any help guys!

Yeah I swapped the 13BT into my FB, And the harness does not have the Green 1-pin connector. So I was checking to see if you guys might know the color of the wire. So I could just find the wire right at the ECU and ground it..



Theres a N/A FC3S in the salvage yard that has a green 1-pin connector next to the MAP sensor. The color of the wire going to it is Green/Black, but if I look up the Green/Black wire in my wiring it's like a clutch switch or somthing.



I did find out that a orange wire did go to a check connector, And that it is the one you ground to set the TPS. I can pu a timing light on the leading coild pack, Then groud out the orange wire but the timing stays the same. So I take it that there is a different wire i need to ground to set the timing??????



Thanks!

as long as the RPM is under 1000RPM (and tps is at zero throttle, presumably) the timing can be set. the 1 pin connector just fixes the BAC duty, so you can set the idle speed
