[QUOTE="protnosss, post: 422741, member: 6773"] thanks for the replies, for more detail information, the mech did use timing gun to adjust my car timing, as per his advice, my engine can only take 10, 12, and 15 degrees. 10 which is the standard, 12 makes my car more sluggish, and i opt for 15 with better response. after advancing the timing, i drove more than 50kms with constant slight engine knocking during acceleration, after that i pour in some octane booster branded as ABRO if i remember correctly (couldn't find afterburn). next day the knocking sound is gone. i will monitor my next fuel refill to check whether there is engine knocking or not, cause i could't afford the regular top up of octane booster. if it does, probably i have to adjust it back to 10 degree. btw, i am using RON97 from mobil currently. will try V-power on next refill. another thing is that, i notice the idling is not so stable anymore, and it idles at 1100rpm for some time before it drop back to 900rpm (the usual is 700-800rpm for my car). will it increase fuel consumption?
