Advanced Timing (Timing in general) 700 1987

posted by  someone claiming to be fixit2003 on  Thu Jul 5 02:45 CST 2007 [RELATED]

The crank pulley outer ring with the timing marks may have shifted. Remove the number one plug and loosen the others. Turn the engine over by hand until the piston is at the top of it's compression stroke. Should be able to feel the compression by plugging the hole w/ your finger. You should then be able to see the piston by shining a flashlight into the plug hole. The crank pulley should be at the TDC mark. If not you'll need a new pulley.
