- Turn off the air conditioning;

- Remove the cap from the inspection hole clutch;

- Rotate the crankshaft of the engine in the following ways:

- Manually turn the crankshaft clockwise by pulley;

- Turn the 4th or 5th gear and move the car;

- Lift the front of the car in gear and turn the front wheel;

- Until the timing marks on the flywheel will not be visible through the inspection hole (see. Fig. 6.11). White, quick-drying paint, check the ignition timing mark on the flywheel and a V-notch in the bottom of the inspection hole;

- Start the engine and warm it up to normal operating temperature;

- Turn off the engine and connect the strobe in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.

Engines PB, PF and 2E:

- Disconnect the blue connector from the temperature sensor (Fig. 6.29 and 6.30);

- Increase the engine speed to 2000- 2500 min-1.

Engine RP:

All engines:

Aim the strobe light in the inspection hole. If the ignition timing is correctly lined with pre-marked marks on the flywheel aligns with the notch in the lower part of the inspection hole;

to adjust, loosen the bolt of the distributor and turn the valve so that the timing marks are aligned, and then tighten the bolt distributor;

After the adjustment, turn off the engine and replace the cap that covers the inspection hole. Disconnect and connect the strobe connector temperature sensor and a vacuum hose of the vacuum regulator ignition timing.
