Timing Instructions - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

mySAVIOReigns · 03-09-2007, 01:09 AM

Can someone please help me? I am getting my mustang Monday (maybe earlier!) and to sell this truck, I've got to pass emissions. I know that the timing is off, and I'm running way rich on Hydrocarbons. I'm going to go get a timing light, and I have no idea how to use the thing. I know you connect red to the + terminal, ground it, and I know during the process you point it at the crankshaft pulley. Oh, and it strobes a light. That's about all I know. Can someone please give me a good specific writeup on how to do this? I heard something about turning the dizzy? I dunno. Any help is much appreciated.

Car is an 85 C10, 305V8, all stock. Thanks
