Injection Timing: Notes

NOTE: 1983 Diesel model timing adjustment must be made with a Timing Meter (J-33075 or equivalent). This meter picks up engine speed and crankshaft position from the crankshaft balancer using a luminosity signal through a glow plug probe to determine combustion timing. Engine malfunctions should be corrected before a timing adjustment is made. Timing mark alignment may be used in emergency situations, but for optimum engine operation the timing meter should be used as soon as possible.
