It isn't that simple. There can be long-term consequences. The most
immediate ones are fuel economy, emmisions, and power. You can burn
valves, overheat the motor when under high loads, blow out pistons,
damage the starter, etc. The ONLY correct setting is the stock
specifacation. If you insist on playing around with the timing you
don't have the equipment and expertise that can compare with the
manufacturer. There is little to be gained by affecting only 1
adjustment. At the very least you need a timing light! No
self-respecting mechanic would adjust the timing without one, you have
no idea what you did without it.
