control plate of this vehicle or the test procedure and technical requirement for the ignition
timing in the repair manual. The discharge control plate of the vehicle is inside the engine
chamber, the usual position is: the back of the engine hood, the engine bulkhead, the top of
the valve chamber cover or near the engine hood lock.
2.3.2 Make the following preparations at least: Find the timing scale and the position of the indicator.
