How do you set the timing on a BP. I am thinking about rebuilding my Moms BP (92 LX, same year as mine!) and was wondering what is required to set the timing?

 

I have rebuilt three 4.0L Jeep engines and am working on a fourth as we speak. On a 4.0 you cant adjust the timing. But obviously the BP is a much more advanced motor than the 4.0, so I am assuming its a little more complex. Which is why I ask.


If you know, why dont you enlighten me and the other members of the forum????


Or how about you????


I hope this forum doesn't become the mess that the eclipse forums have....

follow the instructions for the 1.6 - its pretty much the same. just ignore the idle rpm of 850; its 750 for us. and of course we have a distributor, in the location of *their* crank angle sensor.....

 

Very helpful article, thanks much protejay!!! It still a fairly simple set-up so it should be no trouble at all, I just thought I would check before I go taking things apart
