Advancing the timing will not make the valves clatter, it will make the engine detonate if you're not running higher octane fuel! 5 degrees btdc is correct, and you can go as far as 3 degrees either way and still stay smog compliant (in California atleast) but advancing may cause detonation, which if left unchecked will cause severe damage to your engine!

look on underside of hood there is a sticker.

The timing on the 22re should be set at 5 DBTDC. It can be set ahead to 8 or 12 BDC if it doesnt cause the engines valves to "clatter" and "knock".

What does the pickup coil do on a 88 ford 2.9l?

The pickup coil in a 1988 Ford 2.9L engine is part of the ignition system, specifically within the distributor. It generates a voltage signal as it detects the rotation of the distributor shaft, which is linked to the engine's camshaft. This signal is sent to the ignition control module, which then triggers the ignition coil to produce a spark at the correct timing for combustion. Essentially, the pickup coil plays a crucial role in ensuring the engine runs smoothly by coordinating the ignition timing.

How do you check fuel pump on 1988 Toyota pickup?

To check the fuel pump on a 1988 Toyota pickup, first ensure the ignition is off and locate the fuel pump relay in the fuse box. You can test the pump by bypassing the relay with a jumper wire to see if the pump activates. Additionally, listen for the pump's humming sound when the ignition is turned to the "ON" position (without starting the engine). If there are no sounds or fuel pressure at the fuel rail, the pump may need to be replaced.
