You mean it has a TFI ignition controlled by an EECIV system ? Check your underhood emissions sticker, timing data is there.
There must be timing marks on the crankshaft pulley, wipe the side of the pulley clean if there is an oil and dirt buildup on it. There should be a sawtooth shaped bracket next to the crankshaft pulley. That is your indicator. There is a shorting plug that needs to be removed from the wire harness, it is Called the SPOUT connector ( SPark OUT). The SPOUT connector must be temporarly removed to check or set base timing of 10 degrees BTDC.
