Modern engines take all the fun out of sticking your head under the hood and reaching down in front of the (hot) engine with a timing light in one hand while the other hand twists the (equally hot) distributor.

Ignition timing is now controlled by the ECU. The computer samples a variety of inputs ranging from air and coolant temperatures to throttle opening, altitude and rpm to determine whether timing should be advanced or retarded.

How do set set timing on a Toyota solara 2.4 after the belt is replaced?

If you're referring to cam timing you don't. That's set when the belt is installed by matching up timing marks on the cam drive wheels and the crankshaft. If any of those marks is off even by a single notch in the belt the engine won't run correctly. If you're referring to ignition timing, you still don't. That shouldn't have changed at all during a belt replacement.

How do you set timing on a Toyota 3.0 doch?

I only know about the 2004 V6 I have. There is no way to set the timing. The engine computer controls the timing. Not much one can do to newer cars today. Some of the members of the Toyota Nation forum are interested in more power and performance. Maybe one of them can tell you how to set the timing. If you are talking about changing the timing belt,visit Toyota Nation forum.
