Yup. Set the crank to the static timing spec you want. I like to mark the Pe=
rtronix collar where the magnetic portion is - it comes in handy to know tha=
t. Rotate dizzy counterclockwise until timing light comes on, then back it o=
ff clockwise til it goes out. Lock down the dizzy and start the car, dial in=
dynamic advance as usual.=20

That=E2=80=99s about how long it has been since I really needed to do much t=
o my car. Right now I am going thru the tuning process to get it to run at 5=
500 ft elevation. I want to check the timing but do not remember how t=
