To adjust the timing on a 1997 Jeep Wrangler with a 4.0 engine, first ensure the engine is at operating temperature and then turn it off. Locate the timing marks on the crankshaft pulley and the timing tab on the engine block. Use a timing light to check the timing; it should be set to the manufacturer's specifications, typically around 0 degrees BTDC (before top dead center).
