    I'm really not sure what your asking. I wouldn't worry about over-cooling, but id check your fan switch. as for timing, check the faqs.

    Alright, sit down and take a few deep breaths. To adjust the timing, you need a timing light and the manual, available here. The timing section starts on p. 24-4. Follow the instructions and you'll be golden.

    I believe the fan switch is on the bottom of the radiator, but there are other members here that know a lot more about that than I do.
