What are you trying to do? Set your ignition timing? Does your car run? You need to post more info.

are you getting fuel? did you check your grounds? did you check your grounds again? have you checked your fuses? get the simple stuff done before you start checking some of the bigger things. what have you replaced? rotor, dist. cap? might end up needing to do an ignition coil test. try not to take it to anyone. you will probably find the problem yourself if you go through it step by step and do a little searching. try the terms like "no spark" or something to that extent. you should get a lot of different things to check for. good luck.

If you have no spark... you'll just be wasting your time by trying to set the timing. It has nothing to do with why your car won't start. Figure out why your car has no spark, then worry about the timing.
