You will find that these marks are easier to see if they are clean and you can mark them with a chalk
or a white marker.

Testing Procedures
1. Connect the timing light with the car battery, red clip to positive (+) terminal and black clip to
negative (-) terminal (see Figure 1).
2. The light pulse is usually triggered by the ignition pulse of the first cylinder. This may differ in
some vehicles, therefore consult your owner's manual.
3. Clamp the Inductive pickup onto a clean ignition cable and keep the arrow mark shown on pickup
points in the direction of the spark plug.
4. Start the engine and run up to an operating temperature and adjustment speed recommended by
the manufacturer.
5. Press the switch on the handle of the timing light. The advance indicator will light on. Point the
timing light at the timing marks. The two marks should normally be opposite one the other. If not,
go to next step.
6. Loosen the clamping of fastening screw on the distributor until the distributor can be turned by
hand. Do not loosen too much, otherwise the distributor will turn by itself.
7. Turn the distributor clockwise or anti-clockwise until the rotating mark is in the position
recommended by the vehicle manufacturer
8. Re-tighten the loosen screws, to maintain the distributor setting.
9. Re-check the timing again.
10. Turn off engine and disconnect the timing light and the vehicle.
WARNING:
If the vehicle has a positive earth electrical system, the Xenon lamp is possible not light up. In this
case reverse the inductive pickup so that the arrow points in the direction of the distributor.
