Was wondering since there is no plug leads as such, how the fug do I check the timing Have fixed the O2 sensor, should the light bugger off by itself Note; Oxygen sensor was done from the top & easier with the heat shield off exhaust manifold( for those who are yet to do one).

Have you tried disconnecting the battery?
Timing is all controlled by the computer

The manual says timing should be at 10 degrees & it has all the shizzle for it on the timing cover.
Disconnected the flattery for 45 mins I guess it has to be longer.

What was the O2 sensor fault from the code reader? O2 output to high or output too low? You may have a leak/crack in the exhaust manifold possibly causing the O2 sensor to still read erratic and re-trigger the check light

Shouldn't need more than 10-15mins to reset. It may also have an intake leak

We had a look at the graph on the scan tool & it showed us the MAF, both O2 sensors & you could definitely see the bad one. But I will be keen to see what we get when I check it again.

If you pull back the sheath over the coil pack wiring, you'll find three wires, +12V switched, coil pack drive & ground - clip the inductive pick up over either the +12V switched or ground (choose one of the outside wires) and see it it flashes (mine does) - there should be a notch in the crankshaft pulley and a mark on the timing cover.

If it doesn't have a distrubter, you can't adjust the timing, so there is no point being able to check it. Timing is taken care of by the ecu.

The ECU handles the dynamic advance based on vacuum and rpm, but there's a base advance which is set using the cam position sensor, and it is adjustable. There's a jumper that needs to be inserted to "lock" the ecu advance - check www.Rhinopower.org for the specifics.
