have a 94 ss with w and i am wondering about adjusting timing for a lil kick someone help

wehswarriorS-10

is it a 2.2 4.3 does it have distributor or DIS

94sser

it is a 4.3 w cpi i know on some cars but cant figure out this truck

94sser

distributor

wehswarriorS-10

unhook the advance wire and get the trusty ol timin light and loosen up the hold down clamp on ur distributor and then just aim the timin light to ur TDC marks on ur timin chain cover and adjust it to whereever u want it

94sser

do u know this engine well????
i am not an expert so i need a lil which pulley has the marks the one under the alternator

wehswarriorS-10

no the crank pulley, there is a line on it, paint it a bright color, then there should be a thing on ur timin cover that has notches in it, u go by that

94sser

so the lower pulley center engine and just turn the dist cap a smidge???

wehswarriorS-10

yeah....but make sure u ahve the timin light on it so u dont adjust it too far cuz it dotn take much, and the advance wire unhooked cuz if u retime it with the advance wire hooked up it wont run for shit and it will set off trouble codes

94sser

what the hell is the advance wire and where is it?????

wehswarriorS-10

its a spark advance wire....ur computer advances or retards the spark timing based on engine load and stuff like that it should be a tan wire with a white tracer up under the dash on the passenger side....just un hook it and time.....and do u have a timin light

94sser

ya got the light but never wouldve unhooked that wire thanks a lot man youve been a big help
