Best Answer

If this is the engine with no distributor (has plug-wires directly connected to the ignition coils) then you cannot "set" the ignition timing.

It is controlled by the computer. You CAN however check the "basic timing setting" by grounding the test wire connector and looking at the timing marks on the crank pulley at the pointer with a timing light. The front passenger side cylinder is Number 1 for the timing light connector.

Your basic timing should be running between 2-10 degrees advanced. This must be checked on a fully warmed up engine. The crankshaft position sensor (inside the lower timing cover) is where this is "set" and it is not "adjustable" in any real sense of the word.

Good luck.
