Hey guys whats up? Ok heres what is going on, Nathan helped me tune the car well he did it and i watched but now i am over heating. i think it might be timing. because it is spiking on the logger around 38* timing i put a new T stat in and it helped bring in back down to 247 when it was going up to 265. Any Ideas?? sorry for the hap-hazard.
Thanks Guys Brien 1997 GSX |

At part throttle cruise your timing should be 35-45 degrees. Part throttle acceleration should be 10-25 degrees. 38 is pretty normal when you get out of it. Like they said, check the head gasket. Your timing is still what I would call extremely safe for your boost level.
