there are two ways, depending if you have a friend with a timing light or take the car to a mechanic or you want to do it yourself. On the front of the engine, the last pulley nearest the ground, you will find a timing mark, this has to be concerted with a timing light. An experienced person, probably your local neighbor hood car nut can do this. otherwise, listen carefully, under the distributor head, on the shaft entering the engine, there is a bolt which holds the distributor from turning. Loosen the bolt but do not turn the distributor, hold it fast that it will not move, this is critical. This is to be done with the engine running if it will. If you feel the engine is running rough due to this problem, then very very slowly, turn the distributor one way until the engine smooths out, but not to farl. If the engine runs rougher then turn the other way for the same result. Done carefully while listening intently to the sound of the engine one can adjust the time very well. If this does not work and you fill the distributor is the problem, according to age and milage, the gear at the bottom(in the engine) could be badly worn. These to can be replaced.
