ever do this.
unbolt the distributor basebolt ever, if yes, when and why.
answer no:
connect the timing lamp, strobe.#1 spark lead
hot engines
idling ok
timing freeze jumper in place.(all years covered,i hope here)

point to the scale on Tbelt cover, 0 mark is 0 degrees. to the left is advanced, some are 5deg BTDC others 8. (canada?)(hood sticker on ours tells this secret)
if timing is way off?, or way retarded, the cam belt slipped.
double trouble that.
means all else above is wasted effort (cept that 17mm crank bolt)
