What would cause the timing mark to move while idling on your 1987 camaro v6?

your transmission could be slipping too if you have it over or under filled That tells me that your engine speed is not constant, look for a vacuum leak, egr, or pcv issue. Get to a steady engine rpm before attempting to set timing. A loose distributor could also cause this.
