Take resistive measurements of the water temperature sensor in the morning before starting. It should be the about the same as the ambient temperature. Take another measurement after the engine is up to operational temperature.

If the above does not help: EZ 1: Does it feel like the stick is not swinging far enough to the right? Could be slop in the linkage. Difficult 1: Damaged internal mechanism...

10 degrees to 15 degrees at idle (850rpm) with no vac advance during the measurement is a good starting point.- How do I adjust my cam sprocket for chain stretch?
Pull a spark plug one at a time to see if a cylinder is not working....your idle should drop the same for each plug you pull. You can also do this test with injector connectors. Did you adjust electrical timing with a timing light?- car turns over but wont start. 78 280z please help!
If your plugs are black then it is possible the connections to the water temp sensor need attention.- VIN #22 for sale
Actually all of the zeros look the same in the pics I inserted ... sort of like a teardrop... so they look to be stamped from an engraved stamp master. Likewise the soft curvy "L" with a hooked end looks the same.- VIN #22 for sale
Yup,I checked earlier Z's and they also have the strange sloppy-font stamps. It would be interesting to know when they changed over to cleaner stamps. The zero's look like tear drops.- HLS30 00048 Gets A Cover Page
