It is a vacuum advance right?
What happens if you start it then disconnect the advance?

On my old '94 yukon the timing had to be set by connecting to the computer. Is it the same case here?
Drove me nuts. Turned the distributor to adjust timing and could watch the computer adjust it right back.
This is something I found. Not sure about reliability but....LINK
