Hey everyone,
I think the timing is off on my 87 FJ60. One of the big clues is that I hear a slight backfire at idle, and it seems to ping under load (I think). I want to learn how to do this, and I don't even know where to start, well I lie; I know I need to buy a timing light but that's all I know. So what are the steps? How do I change the timing? What is the correct setting? What should the setting be for a truck w/ 240,000 orig miles ( It has a new Carb). Please feel free to explain like you are talking to a 3yr old!
Thanks,
Zack
