Ignition timing issues...

[Ilikebigbutts]

Hey guys, well, i got my engine runnin after i put a new dizzy in but the problem is that the timing is all screwed up.We really havent had time to mess around wit it but it idles kinda rough and when it warms up and drops to 800 after that it dies.The thing is, i got a 12lb. aftermarket flywheel,and when it was out of the car i was looking for a timing light line according to the Honda manual.It doesnt have one, so how woul i go about timing my shit.My dad said just have the car running and play around with the dizzy to find the smoothest idle,but i would like to do it with a timing light just to be safer.Thnax.

I doubt it has it, cuz the engine came with mark on its flex plate or whatever you cal it(it was an auto engine).But yeah thanx i'll check tommorow i gues.
