So I just put a new motor together and had the tranny rebuilt on my 1997 XJ
I was told that the timing was hard to get right on these, so I paid tons of attention to getting the distributor in just right (at least I hoped).
So it started right up and idles fine. I have about 300 mile on it so far and it just seems to lack in HP.
So I just checked the the timing with a timing light(advance) and it's reading about 18 degrees off at Idle (it actually fluctuates about 2 degree).
Can someone help? I tried searching the forum and have not come up with anything that is close...
thanks.
