The left most notch is 0 BTDC, the middle notch is 10 BTDC, the right most is 14 BTDC for automatic, or 16 BTDC for manual trans.
The indicator is a pin sticking out of the timing cover above the crank pulley.
Put a jumper wire between T and E1 on the Diagnostic connector and adjust the distributer for 10 BTDC.
Remove the jumper and the timing should advance to the rightmost mark, or a little farther.
