Here is the adapter you need to use with a timing light that has advance. Look in the tech articles, there is a thread on timing with this adapter. If you are slightly (1/16" or so) advanced from the static marks on the gear cover you are probably somewhat in the ball park. Until the cold advance kicks off the injection pump is advanced internally. At about 130 degree coolant temp the advance will drop back to base level. To time you need the engine at operating temperature and the rpm held at 2000.
