You can't change ur igniton timing, unless you modify you ECU.

thats what he is asking where is the connector to jump so the ECU does not adjust timing. You need to do this to set your base timing on the honde. Its located under the glovebox on the right. Its a blue connector

Same jumper. Its the "Service Jumper"

Never used it for that, I guess you learn something new everyday. Probably never will.

according to the service manual thats how honda wants you to do it . if the timing is changed using the dizzy without connecting this jumper first the computer will just reset it....
