The timing is way too advanced. The distributor isn't even bolted down, so it was advancing every time I revved the engine. I still need to make a bracket to properly secure it. Open header, ~2500 rpm idle for unknown reasons.

Off topic, but does anyone know where I can buy copies of the Taxi movies? I'm fine with English subtitles, but the only ones that mention definitely having subtitles are region-free with Chinese labels.

It seems to me that a Region 1 DVD would probably have English subtitles, unless it was intended for the Quebecois market.
