What do you mean advance the timing to 16 degrees? How? Stock timing at idle is 16 degrees BTDC. Are you trying to advance it to initial at TDC?

If your not pinging don't worry about it. You don't absolutely have to change octane because you changed your timing. Use the lowest Octane you can get away with.
