Hi,
I've been having some similar problems.  I'm trying to get PROM designed to
work with an HEI module working with a DIS module.
The base timing was 60 degrees off and chanding the "static advance angle" or
KREFANGL made no difference.  What I did to solve the problem was to adjust
the "maximum retard angle" or KMAXRTRD2.  This got everything online.
However, now it seems that this has rendered the normal timing table
inoperative.  I haven't had a chance since then to try a few new ideas.
But, in other words, I can get the base timing correct but I can't get the
timing table to work and I don't know why at the moment.  I don't know if this
relates to your problem very well.
