Checking Distributor Position With Scan Tool

  1. Connect scan tool to data link connector. Select SET SYNC from scan tool menu. Start engine and go to next step.
  2. Observe scan tool display. If scan tool does not display IN RANGE, loosen distributor hold-down clamp bolt and rotate distributor until reading is as close to zero degrees as possible, and IN RANGE message is displayed. Tighten hold-down clamp bolt to 16.7 ft. lbs. (22.5 N.m).
