Hi. Thanks for your question. There are following steps you can follow.
1. Remove the rubber cap from the inspection window of the cylinder block.
Service Check Connector Location.
2. Start the engine and allow it to warm up (cooling fan comes on).
3. Connect the ORN/RED and GRN/WHT terminals of the service connector (BLU) with a jumper wire.
4. Connect a timing light to the No. 1 ignition wire; while the engine idles, point the light toward the pointer on the flywheel (for M/T), or on the drive plate (for A/T).

6. Adjust as necessary by loosening the distributor adjusting bolts, and turn the distributor housing counterclockwise to advance the timing or clockwise to retard timing.
7. Tighten the adjusting bolts and recheck the timing.
