just adjust the **** until it lines up with the marks on the plastic cover and the crank pulley. Look at the timing light and thats what your timing is set at. now loosen the distributor and move it back towards the front of the car to retard and towards the firewall for advance.

good advice... make sure that you dont have one of those fancy timing lights that have degrees on them. if you do, make sure its set at 0*
