The distributor is loosened and rotated slightly to set the timing. There
are a number of by-the-ways listed on the VECI label under the hood. It
requires a timing light, and the service check connector behind the
passenger's kick panel must be jumpered. Be aware the timing marks can be
pretty ambiguous.
Or any shop can do it for about half an hour labor charge.
