Actually, timing issues raise their ugly head in "normal" operation.
They often manifest as discrepancies between "idle" and "load" conditions.
What I read of the problem sounded *exactly* like timing issues. I only
wish I had an idea or suggestion of how to approach the problem.
Oh, wait, I do! Timing light... hook it up and see what you're getting.
You can do a careful "load test" (rev engine against brakes) to see
what's up, but please try to avoid the Darwin Awards.
