timing techniques

[j_max420]

i have a 91 dx with a b16a, do you have to unplug any wire connectors to sey the timing, and if you do which one, and also what should timing be set at for maximum performance

Do a search on the forum you will find all kinds of answers to this. Basically you have to jump the service connector under your dash board. This makes the computer go into an open loop mode so that when you start changing the timing, the computer doesn't try to put it back where it was before. Any car manual for that car should explain how to do it. The timing marks are on the crank and look like this | | | if I remember right. There is an arrow on the timing belt cover.
