You can jump the two wires in the dlc connector,
they're ajacent to each other, I'm thinking one is black
and the other is black/white, but I'll have to get
out the manual when I get home to be shure.

I think a 98 might have a purple/white wire near the dist. if it does, jumper it to grnd to set base timing.

forgot. it usually is not connected to anything and has a clear plug in the end of it. it is the est wire bypass
