How do I set ignition timing on 350 Chevy?
if you know the proper timing for the engine, and it depends on the makeup of the eng. all 350's are not the same. you need a timing light. loosen the dist. hold down clamp,and with the eng. at an idle , shine the light at the timing mark over the harmonic balancer.if you have to change the timing, rotate the dist. very slowly ,and watch the timing marks with the timing light. when the right mark lines up with the timing pointer, lock the dist. hold down clamp, with the bolt. if the eng. starts running real rough, turn the dist. in the opposite direction.

How do you time a 350 Vortec Chevy?
There should be a sticker on the fan shroud telling you which wire to disconnect. On the older tbi motors it was tan with a black stripe i believe. Disconnect this wire, the loosen the dist. bolt and check the timing with a timing gun. Rotate the dist. until you get the desired timing then tighten the dist. bolt and connect the tan wire. On a vortec engine you have to have a engine scanner to adjust the timing. But if there is no check engine light on then the timing is correct all ready. It is controled by the computor, There is no ajustment needed.
What do the timing marks on a mercury topaz 1988 4 cylinder look like?
There is a little window on the fly wheel housing. when open you will see small lines inscribed on the casing. If you turn the engine by hand you will see the mark on the flywheel. Usually you use a white chalk to the line on the flywheel and the mark on the housing. With a timing lite on the number 1 cyl. you will see the marks where they line up. Adjust with the dist. to what you want, but first un-plug the wire harness at the bottom of the dist. before you can check the timing. The plug will be at the lower end of the dist. just to the right.
