- This is an extremely important step before you start fine tuning your Terminator X system on your Fox Body Mustang. This video will show you where you can enable the static timing from the software and how to make adjustments without touching your distributor!

Donnie this video helped me out today. I discovered my distributor came loose and couldn't remember how to set the static timing. After fighting with it for a little while your video helped me out.
Very Important for tuning! Thanks Donny!
truly important..I didnt had to change anything .. but a must to check ...very helpfull Vid...
Nice man 🤘🤘 I just threw that at the beginning of my last video. Lots of people have asked me about how to do it. I’ll direct them here from now on 👍👍
Thanks Dan!
Ooooooooo! 😬😬 Jus an FYI, I know Ive seen on the Holley forum a couple times where Danny mentions that while you can jack with the numbers in the software, its best just to loosen that lil bitty bolt on the dist and fix it there. Not sure why this makes a difference. But I like the idea of having it physically correct. But thats just me. 🤷🏻♂️
Good info thanks! That is the importance of finding true TDC and marking the harmonic damper.
Great info Donny, thanks for making this video.
Thx for info with the inductive delay
Static timing is with the spout out. Once you put it back in, the Terminator is going to change the timing. Are you saying to check the static timing with the Terminator X "check static timing".....and do so with the spout in? Also, wouldn't your timing table change your timing when you rev it to 2,000 RPM? Why are you forcing it to stay at the static value? I am asking this in a serious way. I just want to understand. I am very interested in taking the advice you offer in this video. Thank you for making it.
There is no spout with the terminator x. The static locks the timing at a specified value and you need to verify the balancer reads the same as the static value.
@@strangedemon Thanks a lot for the quick reply and explanation. My system was installed by a speed shop and I didnt realize the spout was no longer used. Great tip.
Good video buddy. I imagine this is with the car at operating temp? Is idle spark enabled or disabled when doing this?
Idle spark gets disabled when you hit set in static timing
How about on a car that won’t idle at all is this something that needs to be done prior to attempting to start for the first time ?
Great video, but I have a question. In the idle table do you have the idle spark enable box checked, or unchecked to do this?
That box should be un-checked when you do this. It'll keep timing from bouncing around. After you're happy, check the box.
When you have the static timing up and hit "set" it disables the P and D term idle spark and will leave it disabled until you hit "clear" on static timing.
Donney b help me out bud. My car when I set the static timing at 10 and do the rev test it goes to 20° then back down to 10° when I left off. When do you think will help?
Ok. Im new to holley and a little lost on this. My base timing on engine was 10btdc .. when i start the car and set static to say 14degrees it goes like 8Atdc..
If you set the timing in the static setting to 14 and hit set and the balancer is showing 8 with a timing light either move the distributor physically to advance to match to 14 or use the reference angle to change it
I did all of this but the numbers on balancer will not stay still. Bounces all over the place. Any ideas? Sbf 331 turbo car. Thanks
Did you click set when you had your number entered? Shouldn't bounce at all under static
@@strangedemon I did. Still bounces around. In the software it is set at 10°. Timing table at idle is set at 20°. Do I enter 10° or 20°?
I'm running the holley hp but I'm sure the timing set is the same procedure
@@joeytyler2081 set it to 10. Usually idles fine at 10 degress
Why not just change ur static timing to 18 to match balance
