If you have a hard time seeing the timing marks, you can set timing using a
vacuum gauge. Terry Tanner says he prefers this over a timing light.
Connect a vacuum gauge to a good vacuum source on the engine, advance the
timing until maximum vacuum is achieved then retard it about one pound.

Subject: [Bricklin] Re. timing mark
It is really hard to see.They are?on?the alternator side of the?motor,?You
have to look behind the alternator bracket.?I mark the timing cover pointer
with bright paint before I start. The big point is 0 and the smaller ones are
each 5 degrees. I have a very expensive timing lite and I still need to be in
a dark garage to set it..
