deviations are usually stated in positive or negative form.
So I would think advanced would be positive and retarded negative.
I just did a little reading on how the cam timing is set up on these engines.
I see where your going with the attempt to "adjust the cams, makes sense.
If your cams have the four bolt setup on the sprocket, timing could have "slipped there at some point.
You just have to figure out which direction to go.
Keep us posted on the results.
