1985 F150 Timing

Truck states to set timing, disconnenct single black wire near the distributor. Cannot find a single black wire. The ignition module is on the distributor and has two black wires. Suggestions?

Fords have what is called a spout connector near the dist. wireing harness. It is a small plastic plug looking devise taped to the other wires usually. It jumpers two wires together. Remove the plug and set timing (10 deg. BTC) reinstall plug.
