You need to pick up a code reader like the one I mentioned, or pull your codes manually as explained in the first thread of this section, before you start modding your base time.

Find an Equus #3145. Will be less the $30. Digital numeric display. Anything else around that price is junk.

Use the factory recommended gap, That MSD isnt making that much of a difference.
