How do you set the timing on a 1990 Chevy Lumina?
Disconnect the plug going to the distributor that has two wores. Start the engine and set the timing to 0� (TDC). Stop the engine, reconnect the plug and the 'puter will handle the timing from there on.AnswerDisconnect the plug going to the distributor that has two wires.

Trying to set the set valves on 350 which valve is the intake and which is the exhaust you have found tdc and set the 1 valves now what?
The intake valves line up with the intake runners on the intake manifold. The exhaust valves line up with the exhaust runners on the exhaust manifold or headers. With #1 at tdc you can set 1,2,5,7 intake and 1,3,4,8 exhaust valves. Rotate the engine one revolution to #6 tdc and set the remaining valves.
How do you adjust valves on 6 hp Briggs and stratton engine?
You have to set the piston at Top Dead Center (TDC). I beleive the lash adjustment (valve clearance) is .004 to .006 in. That means thousandths. Once you have set piston at TDC (valve springs will not be compressed but extended on the compression stroke at TDC). You can now set the lash adjustment by loosening the set nut and bolt. You need a feeler gauge to do this. Set lash on both valves then recheck.

What is the timing advance for a 1998 Dodge 318 5.2?
There is no advance for a 1998 Dodge 5.2. You just set the distributor at the mark on TDC and the computer takes care of the rest. It is set to 0 degrees with a scan tool. It can not be done with a timing light.

depending on the year model for 1985-1990 . before even setting camshaft on timing you must have the engine in top dead center if camshaft pulley is disconnected (only) if camshaft is not disassembled then just put the engine on TDC and have distributor in TDC aswell. refer to repairs manual for TDC specs. good luck

How do you adjust the valve clearance on a 1994 Prelude 2.3 engine?
You need to take the valve cover off and set the engine to TDC for #1 and then TDC for #3 and so forth. you NEED a set of feeler gauges, you need the repair maunal to find the proper adjustment clearnces unless it is on your car's engine decal under the hood. (rule of thumb, adjust the valves when engine is under 100 degrees, also there should be a SLIGHT drag of the proper feeler gauge when the its set right.)
