How do you set timing on a CA

[Ca_Silvia]

I looked throught the FSM and it never said how to set it, just how to change the timing belt.

Do you need the light or is it off the metal thing that sticks out of the timing belt cover?Thanks

Youll need to use a timing light to set the timing... I dont know what the spec ison the CA...

youll hook your timing light up to the no1 spark plug wire and then adjust the distributor so that its in spec.

I bet if you perform a search in this forum youll find the spec and so forth.....

The little thing that sticks out of the timing cover is the timing indicator, basically the arrow that points to what oyur looking for.
