Ignition timing on 2.0 pinto

[waz2710]

Hello there I am struggling to time my 2.0 pinto,I need to know how many degrees I need to set the crank to also if I need to advance the timing and do I start with the big mark in the crank tdc,if someone could help much appreciated.

There is a good video on YouTube showing how to time, by 'Fast Rust' it helped me out.

I am attaching two docs, extracts from the manual, first is the spec of degrees advance etc.. for Pintos and the second is what you do, assuming that you are using the original ECU.
