When setting ignition timing on ford 302 5.0 engine does the rotor need to pointing to the number one on the distributor cap?
If you are setting the timing with a timing light then it don't matter where the rotor is pointing. But if you are putting the Distributor in then yes. When it is in, It must be pointing to #1 on cap so vaccume advance don't hit the thermostat housing when you adjust the timing with a light.
What advances the timing on ford marine engine 2.3?
If it has an older style distributor with the Duraspark unit then there are springs and counter-weights in the distributor that rotate the electronic trigger to advance the timing. If it is the newer TFI distributor with the computer then the computer advances the timing based on the rpm. If it doesn't have a distributor at all and has individual coils then the computer controls the timing. This is based on what I know about the 2.3's from racing them. Hope it helps.
