Timing Question

[rsc179]

On the 2002 Mercuiser 3.0L (w/ the electronic ignition). What I've found on setting the timing is to connect the two white wires comming from the distributor together and disconnect the shift interupt switch.
The white wires are easy enough to find but where is the "shift interupt switch"?

thanks

Re: Timing Question

Go to the link below and download the OEM Service manual for your engine. Then turn to page 4B-9. EXACT details on how to set your timing.

Re: Timing Question

An OEM service manual is what EVERY DIYer needs. They just don't know it till they finally get one.

I knew I needed it, I was a GM certified auto tech (mechanic) and ASE Master Tech. But I didn't know where to download it. Thanks again.

Now if anyone has question about mid 80s GM cars speak right up.
