Start the engine and point the timing light at the timing marks. The flashing timing light will cause the timing mark on the harmonic balancer appear to be stationary and aligned with the timing marker. It should be lined up with "10 BEFORE."

On a Chrysler 318 engine, the timing marks are typically located on the harmonic balancer and the timing cover. The harmonic balancer has a notch or a mark that indicates the timing degree, while the timing cover has a corresponding mark to align with it.

Always consult the specific service manual for the year and model for precise timing information.
