0 deg -or- TDC With the distributor timing connector disconnected.
check the timing,if its like my 89 v6 was,there's a connector on the passenger side firewall that has to be disconnected before adjusting the timing.
To adjust the base timing on a 1996 Ford Bronco 5.8L, first ensure the engine is at operating temperature and then disconnect the timing connector, usually located near the distributor. Use a timing light to check the current timing by pointing it at the timing marks on the harmonic balancer while the engine is running. Adjust the timing by loosening the distributor hold-down bolt and rotating the distributor until the desired timing is achieved, then retighten the bolt. Finally, reconnect the timing connector and verify the timing is set correctly.
To set the timing on a 1988 Dodge Ram, first, ensure the engine is at operating temperature and then turn it off. Disconnect the timing connector, usually located near the distributor, to disable the computer-controlled timing. Use a timing light to check the current timing by aiming it at the timing marks on the crankshaft pulley. Adjust the distributor by loosening its hold-down bolt and rotating it until the timing mark aligns with the specified degrees before top dead center (BTDC), then tighten the bolt and reconnect the timing connector.
there is no fuse located for fuel gauge. check connector. maybe it is lose or some wire is discontented. check connector and cable in the back seats.
Look a the emissions sticker under the hood of your car, it has the timing information there. Mine says disconnect the timing connector at the distributor and set timing to 0 degrees.then reconnect the timing connector I have a 4.3 vortec. After setting the timing you will have a check engine light, clear it by disconnecting the negative battery terminal or pull the ECM fuse for a few minutes.
Timing is probably off. Set number 1 piston at TDC and check the timing marks. If applicable, also remove cap from distributer and check position of rotor, it may need adjusting for correct timing.
It should be around or close to the 02 sensor. Check for a part dangling by a wiring and connector.
on the front bottom part of oil pan. just behind the bottom pulley.
To set the timing on a 1993 Plymouth Sundance, first ensure the engine is at operating temperature and then disconnect the timing connector (usually found near the ignition coil) to allow for proper timing adjustment. Use a timing light to check the timing marks on the crankshaft pulley against the timing specifications indicated on the engine's timing cover. If adjustment is needed, loosen the distributor hold-down bolt and rotate the distributor until the timing light indicates the correct timing mark. Finally, recheck the timing and reconnect the timing connector.

OR CRANK ANGLE SENSOR HOLD-DOWN NUT TO LOOSEN HOUSING, TURN HOUSING TO ADJUST TO YOUR ENGINE SPEC, TIGHTEN HOLD-DOWN NUT, RE-CHECK TIMING, TURN OFF ENG., REMOVE JUMPER WIRE, REPLACE COVER ON CONNECTOR.
To set the timing on a 1984 Chevy Celebrity with the V6 engine: 1. Disconnect the HEI connector so the engine will run in closed loop. 2. Start the engine and use an inductive timing light to check the timing. It should be at 100 before top dead center 3. If the timing is off loosen the clamp at the base of the distributor and turn the distributor so that the timing is set. 4. When you have set the timing tighten the clamp and verify that the timing did not change. If it stayed the same reconnect the HEI connector.
