You cant. It is all controlled by the ecu.
how do you set the timing belt on a 1997 ford contour 2.0 4cy
Ignition timing is automatically set. sorry.
computer controlled.
u cant most newer vehicles timing is controled by the cars computer
you set timing by the marks on the cam shaft and the crank shaft. they should point at together to make it run right.
if it is a 4.6 v8 you dont it is controled by the ecm
The ignition timing for the Mystique, Contour, and new age Cougar are controlled by the Powertrain Control Module (PCM), and are not adjustable by the typical shade tree mechanic.
In mechanics books it says to set the timing to 6 DBTDC with a timing light, (Caution: this is with all the pollution stuff on the motor) If you removed the pollution gadgets the timing should be set with a vacuum gauge and the timing will be 12 DBTDC.
how do you set or check the timing on a 99 ford expedition?
where to set timing for a 1988 ford ranger 2.2l
You cant. Timing is controlled my crankshaft position sensor and other sensors that monitor air flow and engine load. The PCM is ultimatley responsible for timing control by reading sensor input values.
you have to take the top off the camshaft and there a tool youuse to line them up before putting the belt on
