You can not set the timing. It is determined by the keyway between the flywheel and the crankshaft. It only goes in one place. You can adjust the coil, the valves and the carburetor.

How do you Tim a Briggs stratton 5 hp?

Timing on all Briggs & Stratton small engines is set at the factory and non-adjustable. It is determined by the placement of the armature (coil) and position of flywheel on crankshaft. Unless the crankshaft is bent or the flywheel key is sheared (both are possible after an impact or sudden stoppage), timing is perfect. Rough running is likely an intake or mechanical problem.
