How to set timing

[madman]

First off you will need

1. 12mm spanner
2. Timing light
3. Some sort of white paint i.e tipp-ex

First off look at the crank pully and find the marks on it mark them with the tipp-ex so u can see it better like i have done, do the same with the 2 marks on the lower timing covers as in the pix .

Next open the diagnostic port andd bridge out TE1 and E1 this places the car in diagnostic mode. clicky

Now set up the timing gun and place the clamp on cyl No 1 now start the car and shine the gun on to the lower pully (note if ur gun has a dial on it set it to 0) u will be able to see what ur timing is set at now. it should be flashing at the 10 marker if it not read on

Ok if its not flashing at the 10 marker losen the 2 12mm bolts on ur dizzy as per the pix now ajust the dizzy untill ur timing is set at the 10 marker (u will see the timing move as ur ajusting it) once u have it at the 10 marker tighten the 2 12mm bolts up and just give it a last check to make sure its not moved.

and thats it guys its a easy job that if not set rite can make a lose of hp and cos the engine harm.
