I'm going to check my timing to see how she's doin. But I don't know what the timing should be at tho. So fill me in, please.

Also, what should my compression be at? I need to check that too.

how do you adjust our timing?

do we have to short a circuit or disconnect a vacuum line?

the only time you have to disconect a vacuum line is on a "points style" ignition system to adjust yours you have to loosen the distributer mounting bolts (dont take them out). then hook up your timing light to the #1 plug wire. start the car. flash the light at the crank pully. and rotate the distributer until the mark on the crank is at 10 deg btdc.
