A friend came over yesterday and we found out that my coils are firing like they should so i borrowed a timing light and would like to know how to check the timing to make sure that the timing is correct and see if this is why i cant get it to start.. any one know how? TKS!

do you mean your coils are NOT firing right?

and cuz it doesn't say in there...if you're looking at the e-shaft pulley you will see 2 marks as stated in the FSM. The one on the right is for leading, the one on the left is for your trailing. All other instructions are in the link.

BTW..you might be flooded.....but one step at a time

ok took bottom plugs out, turned it over, and flames shot out bottom holes.. so plugs are firing good but will not start so he said it might be out of timing.. so i need to know how to check and adjust timing

Download and read the FSM, this is auto mechanics 101. What the FSM fails to mention is you need to pull the vac lines off of the dizzy and plug them during timing.
