You will find the actual process in your service and repair manual that should have been the very first thing you purchased for your truck. These specs should be close enough. The timing should be set at 10° BTDC if your distributor is set up correctly and the EGR is working. Set your idle speed to 750 with a manual and 600 with an automatic. Someone may have better specs tho.
