Hi,
I have no experience with DFI Petrol engines, so bear with me.
I want to adjust the timing on a Daihatsu Terios Kid with a EF-DET engine.
Mechs tell me it can't be done and can only be done with a computer since the ignition is controlled by the ecu. Is there any manual adjustment for the ignition timing?
Why do i want to adjust the timing? well the engine has been stripped of its turbo (ustad jee's idea of a trouble free car) and it backfires sometimes, simply lags like a cow in drive and the fuel consumption is staggeringly high.
Any body know if it the timing can be adjusted manually or not?
