Default Does anyone know how to adjust the timing on a 1996 Accord EX???

I own a 1996 Accord EX with the 2.2L V-TEC. I cannot figure out how to set the timing. The Haynes manual says to turn the distributor but there is no adjustment. Anything will help. Thanks

I'm going to guess you didn't search or look in the FAQ thread huh?

psst...
look in the Engine section of the FAQ stickied at the top of the 90-02 Accord forum

The distributor is not slotted for adjustment on that year/engine.
OBD2 incorporated a crank sensor on the face of the engine.

If the timing is off, the first thing I would check is to be sure the throttle cable has a little slack in it.
