I need to adjust the timing on a '97 Taurus. However I need to disable the computer so that it doesn't adjust the timing automatically. Can you tell me what all I would need to do to disable the computer?

Disconnect single in-line SPOUT connector, or remove shorting bar from double-wire SPOUT connector.
