Also, it idles at around 1500rpm. Shouldn't it be closer to 900 or 1000?
I also have the same problem of the engine running better with 15-20 advance.
Idle is around 900-1100.
Had found when I first ran up the engine the idle was all over the place.
Cleaned out the ISC valve with carb cleaner, sorted that.
Idle 2000rpm cold 1000rpm hot, about 850rpm with aircon on.

Like you, I did not like how the engine ran at 10deg.
Still waiting for an answer to the problem.
