Tadd there is a 10degree marking to go off of on my crank pulley its differnt from yours, when the car is cold it does not like to start or idle untill warm. i have to give it gas as i crank it over for it to start and hold the gas for it to idle untill it warms up a bit. Would that be a timing issue or fuel or even both?

Yeah, it's a little sad Mazda (and many other engine manufacturers) rely on a shitty piece of plastic that likes to self machine on the pulley and melt to do something as important as time the engine.
But you need one.
Tadd, for the fuel tables, there's a great thread in the "SUPER important MegaSquirt threads" thread.
