Hi everyone-

I finally pulled my '94R out of hybernation! Yeah!!!

One of the things I did this weekend was to bump the timing up to  

14 degrees- definitely makes a difference. I'm a little concerned  

about knocking, however. When I took it out on the road to test it  

under load (I found a nice _uphill_ freeway ramp where I opened her  

up to redline), I realized then that even if the engine were  

knocking, I probably wouldn't hear it over the baseline roar....  

Would I?

Also, what's the minimum fuel grade which can safely be used at 14  

degrees advance combined with "spirited" driving ?



Thanks in advance,

Andre
