First you need a timing light which I assume you have. There is a notch on crank pulley,put a dab of white paint on it. Connect timing light, if off loosen bolt for distributor and adjust accordingly.Manual states 8 degrees BTDC @ 800 RPM. This is also assuming that all other components are in good working condition,timing belt etc.

You Start off by taking the CAS (crank angle sensor) out.Then your main pulley must be set to the yellow mark.After that the CAS has 3 dots on the gear it has on the bottom,the one that is at the top of the gear must be set at the mark the CAS has.When your settingthe pulley turn it only clockwise.this is how ido it without tools.Just a 10mm socket and 19mm for the pulley.Your welcome
