1) adv multiplier = IAM ?
2) adv multiplier = 0, is that normal?
1) Yes, if you are referring to IAM as Ignition Advance Multiplier as some people do. IAM can also be the Initial Advance Multiplier which is the maximum value the Advance Multiplier will be when starting the car. The latter is a value in the tune file.

2) No. Likely a mistake in the logging. If you flash your ecu again does it start at 1 or .7? If so, your ECU is detecting a lot of knock and reducing timing (logging good, engine bad). If after flashing the adv multiplier starts at 0, then you definitely have a logging issue (logging bad, engine ???).

Hope that helps.
