Start the engine in idle mode and aim the strobe into the hole on the left side of the casing of the clutch. If the slot on the flywheel appears at the lower edge of the hole, then the ignition timing is normal. If correction is required, remove the plug with the clamp bolt of the distributor, loosen the bolt and turn the dispenser to the desired setting angle. Reinstall all removed parts, reconnect the vacuum hose, turn the engine off and remove the strobe.
