Been getting constant misfires at idle so I though I'd check the timing and its way out. I would need to rotate the dizzy past the furthest point that the bolt will allow to set it correctly.

Taken the dizzy out, but need some pointers in how to set the timing (I'm a noob). I had a look at some threads on here but i think i'm mis-understanding some part of the process.

1) Engine to TDC#1 - could someone talk me through how to rotate the flywheel to the white mark? I can't see how to access the flywheel.

2) Remove dizzy cap? Is that necessary

3) Align the dot to the notch on the shaft of the dizzy.

4) Insert dizzy - which way should I be putting the dizzy in? The dot/notch pointing towards the front of the car?

5) Put cap back on

5) Bridge service connection and start

6) Use timing light to fine tune by rotating dizzy.

Am i missing anything?

Thanks, Alex
