how do i adjust the timing? one thread i was reading it sounded like moving the ip sets the timing?
is seting the timing to 24 btdc the same as doing the drip method at 1 drip per second? or are they different?
if they are the same can i just try the drip method to see how many drips im at before moving the pump?

No Timing Marks on the IP.
Loosening the IP retaining bolts both rear and front allows you to rotate the IP and that changes the timing.
The Piston has to be on the compression stroke and the 24 btdc on the Crank Shaft Damper lined up with the pointer.
Disconnect the Vacuum Hose from the Shutoff and the Throttle has to be in full fue positon (if you wire or tie it down besure to put a not on the Steering wheel that it is tied down so you do not start the Engine like that).
Completely remove the Injector Hard lines to make the IP easier to turn. While some one is pumping on the Hand Primer to keep up the pressure you slowly rotate the IP until you get that 1 drip per second.
Caution I summarized the timing proceedure; you really should take some time and do some reading. Drip timing can be frustrating if you do not do it exactly right.
If you do not want to read through a lot of threads you are making a good case for buying the CD Service Manual set.
