Timing help!
Sorry guys, I searched a lot but cannot find an answer on here. I need the initial timing setting for a 2000 Mountaineer 5.0 motor (which is now in my 94 F150 & don't have it or a clue...)
Tks in advance!!

Are you just trying to verify that the timing is where it should be? For a '98 5.0, it's 10 degrees BTDC. I doubt if it's different for your 2000.

Timing
THANKS! That's all I needed to get me in the ballpark! Apparently some stuff changed between 95 & newer, like OBD2. Just needed to get a starting point.
