Re: 1998 5.7 timing question

Timing is not adjustable.
What was the code no.
Set the dist as shown in link.

After truck is started and running get a engine capable scanner and set the camshaft retart as close to -0 or +0 as you can get it.
This is done by turning dist.
And it has to be over a 1K rpm for the new adjustment to readjust on scanner reading.

Also make sure fuel pressure is up to par.
