So I have a 95 mustang with heads/cam/intake setup. I got a anderson pms system from a guy who had it on a turbo 351w. I have a wideband in the car btw

I know the tune on it now is gonna be way out of wack but I went to a data set that seemed like it wasn't messed with.

I have a few questions
1. When I setup my TPS voltage in the tuner from what I read with a multimeter on the sensor. Throttle completely closed Is 1.38v. Wot is 4.68v. I know it's higher than stock but I assumed the pms would have no issue if inputted. Adjusting the tps involves removing the iac. But when I look on the live data readout TPS shows idle and when I touch the gas even a little it shows WOT. I know this shouldn't happen so idk.
2. I know it needs to be professionally tuned but I wanna get it to start. The ignition timing isn't set at 10°. The marks on crank are worn off so I set it with my ear and it ran good when I just had an sct chip. How would i go about know the degrees. I really don't wanna buy a new balancer. I was thinking of measuring the circumference and Dividing by 36 and that will tell my 10°.
3. I saw you can plug a laptop to tune the anderson from a laptop. That'll be alot easier for me. But idk what software it uses and I assume it uses the plug that goes to the display. Just wanna know what it uses for software.

If this thread doesn't belong in here I apologize this just seemed like the right on place as it's not a handheld. Thanks in advance.

#2 buy a timing tape that sticks to the balancer, pull the #1 plug, you need a piston stop, roll the engine clockwise till it stops (I should add that you do this by hand, pulling all the plugs makes it easy to spin) mark the balancer, spin it counter clockwise till it stops, mark the balancer, measure and mark halfway between, this is top dead center, put the timing tape on the balancer with this mark at 0.
If your balancer is original, or of unknown age I would replace it, they are not that expensive.
For the tuning part of this there are a couple members that tune megasquirt, I'll hit them up.
Wait, I see you already found the turner 'studio'.
