Need timing advance or retard... or am I off
This warm weather has done a strange thing to my car. I went from getting 19 mpg (on a good day) to getting 21+ mpg. No driving changes have been made.
My car also wants to stall out every once in a while now when I let off gas and push in clutch. The revs drop a little to low and it chokes a bit. I beleive the cool air from before was keeping the revs a little higher and now its reading warmer air it wants to stay a little lower. It still idles at `850-900 in warm and cold weather (after car warmed up a minute).
The temp has gone from low to first notch to staying in center.....thank god. I didn't run a t-stat all winter since I tried two and both were bad and got tired of replacing coolant and messing around with it and got busy and didn't feel like freezing my ass off in the cold anymore. 
Opinions on timing issues?
