Information I gained on a 1988 V6 Ford 2.9 is that timing is set at 10 degrees before TDC with the engine warmed up. at idle, and with the sprout wire connecting plug removed so the computer timing advance is inoperative. The sprout wire is located in the loom of the large wire bundle coming from the distributor to the right side of the engine and is yellow in color, with two wires to the plug, either a round or square plug , with the plug simply connecting the two wires together , thus making a convenient disconnect to set the timing. The vehicle engine letter in the VIN is 'T' for this engine and timing setting. The firing order is 142536 with the rear mounted distributor turning clockwise.
