IIRC, the ECM starts pulling timing advance when IAT gets above 95°F.

Yes. The ECM uses the temp sensor in the bank 1 (right side) MAF and that is what you see on the ScanGauge. I wouldn't be too surprised to find out the sensor data is massaged a bit before being reported, but it should be close to what the sensor is seeing.


95 eh... That's less than ambient for about 6 months out of the year here in TX So I guess my timing is retarded in the summer

Due to roof, plumbing, and bathroom repairs, this project is on hold for a few weeks.

I'm still looking for a multi-channel thermometer.

Insurance is paying for most of the roof. Only very minor damage from the plumbing problem (it was out in the garage, so most of the water drained quickly). Been wanting to get bathroom fixed up for several years now and figured this was a good time to do it. All-in-all nothing earthshaking, just time-consuming and a bit on the expensive side. And noisy - construction crew is tearing out the old tile as I type.
