get a pointer ==Answer= try using a vacuumm gauge hook the guage up to where the distributor is plugged into start the engine advance the distributor until the vacuum guage stops climbing the back it off one degree good luck
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
To time the distributor on a 1993 Corvette LT1, you will need a timing light and a timing pointer. Connect the timing light to the battery and the number one spark plug wire, then aim the timing light at the timing pointer. Loosen the distributor hold-down bolt and turn the distributor until the timing mark lines up with the specified timing degree indicated in the manual. Tighten the distributor bolt and recheck the timing to ensure it is set correctly.
This type of gauge has an armature (magnet) that is mounted on the pointer shaft. The armature is surrounded by the stationary cross coils. These three coils are wound across each other
Locate the plug wire to cyl. #1 ( farthest from distributor); remove distributor cap (typically 3 screws one of which is difficult to access) and rotate the engine with a socket set until the distributor pointer is at the location of the #1 cylinder plug wire .... drew boggs
With the engine warmed up and at idle, disconnect the vacuum line to the vacuum advance.Hook up your timing light to number one cylinder. Slightly loosen the distributor. The timing should be about 4 degrees. Move the distributor until the pointer is at 4 degrees. Tighten the distributor and reinstall the vacuum hose.
1. pointer to a constant means you can not change what the pointer points to 2. constant pointer means you can not change the pointer.
Example: int x; -- integer int *px= &x; -- pointer to integer int **ppx= &px; -- pointer to pointer to integer int ***pppx= &ppx; -- pointer to pointer to pointer to integer
A pointer only holds an address information (location) in the memory. if a pointer holds points another pointer then it is a pointer to an other pointer. Pointer holds an address in the memory so in that address there is an other location information that shows another location.
Connect timing light to #1 spark plug and battery Remove and plug vacuum line to vacuum advance unit on distributor Mark appropriate timing mark on crankshaft and stationary reference Loosen distributor cap slightly Start vehicle and aim timing light at timing marks Rotate distributor to align marks Tighten distributor cap when marks are aligned Reconnect vacuum line
pointer is the variable that holds the address of another variable
Double pointer is a pointer to a pointer. So you can work with the double pointer as you work with a single one.Or you might mean 'pointer to double', eg:void clear_double (double *dp){*dp = 0;}
