To time it properly, you'll need a timing light, a short piece of wire, and a wrench to loosen the distributor pinch bolt.
1. get access to the diagnostic connector under the cigarette lighter trim plate, then using the short piece of wire, jump terminals A & B. (do a search if you need more detailed instructions on how to do this);
2. loosen the distributor hold down bolt so that you're able to twist the distributor body by hand with a moderate amount of pressure;
3. clip the timing light to the battery and the #1 spark plug wire;
4. start the engine and aim the light at the timing tab on the front of the timing chain cover and note where the timing mark on the harmonic damper is in relation to the marks on the timing tab;
5. rotate the distributor by hand a little each way until you determine the correct direction to make the timing mark on the harmonic damper line up with the 10 BTDC mark on the tab;
6. repeat for #4 cylinder to get the best average position of the distributor body;
7. shut down the engine;
8. tighten the distributor hold down clamp;
9. unplug the jumper wire from the diagnostic connector;
10. unplug the timing light;
11. have a cold beer.
