Hey guys. Just wondering how many of you are familiar with making up engine looms.
Been to toyospares. my car is running very high in advance i think about 60 degrees... been set back to 10. but it fully retards. Thats what i been told. if any of u local guys are able to rewire/modify my loom there is some big bucks involved.
n possibly a beer or two. or maybe several 
any help or advice would be greatly appreciated friends/family anyone.

I've been saved. A mate of mine knows some guy that rewires porsches. as in rewiring the heavy metal wiring with lighter wires which still do the same job. Seemingly hes done a fair few of these. i'm not sure about who would ever want their porsche rewired  . anyway if u guys ever want auto elec work or a $500 mongoose pager car alarm fitted WITH waranty. give me a holler

running 60 degres advance =runs fine... but bubbly n rough
10-15 degress.= backfires. not a very nice sight or sound.
guys at toyospares told me n i saw for myself.
its got a 4age 16v 86kw in it.
if its definately not wiring/loom. i may as well put a new engine in it and start fresh

Can't see the relevance to wiring looms, I'd be looking at the cam timing first.

do 4age's have timing belts or chain? it sounds like a possible slip in cam timing. An engine will not run fin if it has 60 degrees of timing at idle if it will run at all
