Ignition Timing Advancers are mechanical 'bolt-on' pieces to advance the ignition timing of the engine to a specific degree of timing advance. The majority of its application for these parts are for motorcycles or on racing applications.
pree ignition timing is advanced
Yes, advanced ignition timing can cause an engine to run hot. When the ignition timing is set too early, it can lead to increased cylinder pressure and temperature, resulting in pre-ignition and knocking. This excessive heat can strain the engine components, potentially leading to overheating and damage. It's essential to maintain the correct ignition timing for optimal engine performance and temperature control.

If your 1995 Aspire only runs when the distributor timing is fully advanced, it may indicate an issue with the ignition timing or the engine's compression. The problem could be due to a faulty ignition system, such as worn spark plugs or a malfunctioning ignition coil, affecting the timing's effectiveness. Additionally, it might suggest a vacuum leak or problems with the fuel delivery system, causing the engine to require advanced timing to run smoothly. A thorough inspection of these components is recommended to diagnose the issue accurately.
4, to 6 degrees advanced or BTDC.

check the timing it may be advanced
It sounds like your ignition timing timing is too far advanced. It will need resetting.
4, or 6 degrees advanced, or BTDC, depending on your altitude.
6, to 8 degrees advanced, or BTDC., will work best.
Right around 6 degrees advanced, with todays pump gas.
