You don't unplug andything.
You need to fumble around under your dash and locate the little diagnostic plug.
You have to put a jumper (some wire or a paperclip) in that to disable the electronic ignition advace.
This is something the ECU does... not the motor.

Re: timing techniques (daubleaaron)
what would happen if you drove your car with the electronic ignition advance disabled? ie/ if I left the jumper wires on and drove my car.
If you leave the jumper on the connector the CEL will stay lit. I left the jumper on the connector and it took a sec to figure out why the CEL was lit.
