Ok, I just got an 88 Ranger w/ 2.0L

When I got it, the timing belt was broken. I had some guys help me get the belt replaced, and I drove the truck home about 20 miles. It ran fair, but had NO power. I'm not expecting a lot of power, but it really feels like the timing's just a hair off. No backfiring or anything like that.

I've never actually messed with a distributor before, but I do have an old timing light. Now:

1. I can't seem to see the distributor hold down bolt. Does anyone know where it is?

2. The truck starts easy, but is slow to wind up and make power. Does that sound like I need to advance or retard?

3. If I'm really careful, could I just turn the distributor slightly w/o going to the trouble of dragging out the light, plugging the vacuum advance, etc.?

Thanks!
