The correct ignition timing for a 1988 Chevy Sprint with a 1-liter, 3-cylinder non-turbo engine is generally set to 10 degrees BTDC (Before Top Dead Center) at idle. It's important to verify this with the specific service manual or under the hood specifications, as timing can vary slightly based on emissions equipment and production variations. Always ensure that the engine is at operating temperature before making adjustments.
A 1976 Chevy did not have a points ignition, but that has nothing to do with the correct timing. You will find that the engine runs best with about 8-12 degrees BTDC.
