To set timing correctly on a 1992 Honda Civic the distributor must be installed at the right angle. Install the distributor at the correct degrees to ensure the timing is set properly.
Install timing light on #1 cylinder Remove and plug vacuum advance line from distributor Highlight timing marks crankshaft and stationary Loosen distributor hold down Start vehicle and move distributor to align marks
I'm not sure if you can on that model. If it has a distributor, you can loosen the hold down bolt and turn it to advance or retard your timing. If it doesn't have a distributor, it set by the ecm.
It would be best if you let a pro install it as every crank has to be lined up for proper timing.
Assuming that you know how to use a timing light to adjust timing: 1. Disconnect the electronic spark control at the distributor. 2. The timing should be 10 degrees btdc. Rotate the distributor to achieve the proper setting at the timing mark on the crankshaft.
ignition timing is electronic. follow the procedure in the repair manual for installing the distributor. Jeep does not have a base timing position.

The distributor is set to 0 degrees with a scan tool. It can not be done with a timing light.
Many Fords of that vintage required that a jumper be placed on a socket near the distributor. Without the jumper in place it's not possible to change the timing of the engine. Install the jumper, set the timing with a timing light THEN remove the jumper and it should stay. You'll need to get a reference manual to identify the jumper location and to determine the proper timing advance settings.
Put the #1 piston at TDC. Pull the Distributor cap off (2 clips). Mark the position of the rotor relative to the distributor. Remove the timing adjusting nut located to the rear of the engine just behind the distributor. Pull it out (it twists as it comes out). DO NOT move the Veh or turn the engine over, as this will make correct timing that much harder. Instalation is the reverse procedure. Adjust timing with timing light.
Turn the engine until the #1 plug is at TDC on the compression stroke. Mark the distributor at that location. Install the new distributor and turn until you are at the exact same location. Have the timing checked after you get it started.
The full procedure is a bit lengthy to write out so I've attached some links below to show you how. To adjust your ignition timing loosen the 12mm bolt in the middle of the distributor slide and move the distributor towards the front of the truck to advance the timing, move it towards the back of the truck to retard the timing.
