1. Is there any logical reason why you did not include that information found in your Comments - in your original Question? I'm a great Mechanic, not a Mind Reader.
2. That Setting is suppose to be at 10-degrees. You can ****** it (-2-degress) or Advance it (+2-degress).
3. The Markings on the Crankshaft Pulley and Engine Plate tell you where the Timing is currently at, not necessarily where the Timing suppose to be. You do not "set" this like you set a clock and simply turn the Crankshaft Pulley to Set your Timing.
4. The Answer originally provided was free. I do not get compensated other than your rating.
5. I strongly suggest you purchase a Haynes or Chilton Manual available at most auto parts stores for around $20-$30.
6. This has been reported as Abuse.

No that wasnt helpful. i need to know what the timing needs to be set to. like how much before top dead center or after top dead center. Theres a set of numbers above the timing belt and they read 20 10 0 from right to left. all i need to know is where the timing needs to be set. i have a feeling its somewhere bewteen 8-10
