To adjust the timing on a 1999 Ford Ranger 2.5, first ensure the engine is at operating temperature and the vehicle is parked on a level surface. Disconnect the spout connector to set the timing to base. Use a timing light to check the timing mark on the crankshaft pulley against the timing indicator on the engine block. If adjustment is needed, loosen the distributor clamp bolt and rotate the distributor until the timing is set to the specified degree, then retighten the clamp and reconnect the spout connector.
