If the engine speed was unstable or the engine speed could not be controlled within 50 rpm because of mechanical factors or electrical factors, refer to the diagnostic procedure Troubleshooting, "Engine Misfires, Runs Rough or Is Unstable".If all of the problems have been corrected but the timing can not be calibrated, check the cable of the 6V-2197 Timing Calibration Probe and check the 6V-2197 Timing Calibration Probe in order to verify that the probe is not bent.
