Need some help for adjusting my distributor.
hey, ive got a 99 civic with a b16 a2 that was just swaped. It runs well but my timing is off. Can someone tell me what the timing is suppose to be set at on my distributor so that i can run my motor to the full capacity. I don't know if should be runing stock timing. Don't want to sound dumb but this is an area that is very confusing for me. Thanks.

If you have a timing light... you can figure it out.
Connect the timing light
Jumper the service connector
Start the car.
Look at the timing marks on the pulley.
With a non-adjustable light you should see a couple of marks together then one off in the distance. Those couple of marks are where it should be, right in the middle of them.
