    Heat is a big factor. The cooler the air the more denser it is. And the cooler your car runs the more timing you can put into it before it detonates.

    how to read error codes?

    Go to Autozone or Oreillys and buy a code scanner. It is only like $50-$60 dollars. Look for a Ford ODB-1 code reader.
