(3) Inspect the spark plug condition. Refer to Spark
Plug Condition in this section.
SPARK PLUG GAP ADJUSTMENT
Check the spark plug gap with a gap gauge. If the
gap is not correct, adjust it by bending the ground
electrode (Fig. 6).
SPARK PLUG INSTALLATION
(1) Start the spark plug into the cylinder head by
hand to avoid cross threading. (2) Tighten spark plugs to 28 N Im (20 ft. lbs.)
torque. (3) Install spark plug cables over spark plugs.
IDLE RPM TESTÐ2.5L AND 3.0L ENGINES
WARNING: APPLY PARKING BRAKE AND/OR BLOCK
WHEELS BEFORE PERFORMING IDLE CHECK OR
ADJUSTMENT, OR ANY TESTS WITH A RUNNING
ENGINE.
Engine idle set rpmshould be recorded when the
vehicle is first brought into shop for testing. This
will assist in diagnosing complaints of engine stalling,
creeping and hard shifting on vehicles equipped with
automatic transaxles. Proceed to the Throttle Body Minimum Airflow pro-
cedures in Group 14.
IGNITION TIMING PROCEDUREÐ2.2L TBI, 2.5L
TBI, 2.5L MPI, AND 3.0L ENGINES
WARNING: APPLY PARKING BRAKE AND/OR BLOCK
WHEELS BEFORE PERFORMING SETTING IGNITION
TIMING OR PERFORMING ANY TEST ON AN OPER-
ATING ENGINE.
Proper ignition timing is required to obtain optimum
engine performance. The distributor must be correctly
indexed to provide correct initial ignition timing. (1) Set the gearshift selector in park or neutral and
apply the parking brake. All lights and accessories
must be off. (2) If using a magnetic timing light, insert the
pickup probe into the open receptacle next to the
timing scale window. If a magnetic timing unit is not
available, use a conventional timing light connected to
the number one cylinder spark plug cable. Do not puncture cables, boots or nipples with
test probes. Always use proper adapters. Punc-
turing the spark plug cables with a probe will
damage the cables. The probe can separate the
conductor and cause high resistance. In addition
breaking the rubber insulation may permit sec-
ondary current to arc to ground. (3) Turn selector switch to the appropriate cylinder
position. (4) Start engine and run until operating tempera-
ture is obtained. (5) With the engine at normal operating tempera-
ture, connect the DRBII scan tool to the data link
connector (diagnostic connector). Access the State Dis-
play screen. Refer to the appropriate Powertrain Diag-
nostics Procedures Manual. If not using the DRBII
scan tool, disconnect the coolant temperature
sensor electrical connector. The electric radiator
fan will operate and the malfunction indicator lamp
(instrument panel Check Engine light) will turn on
after disconnecting the coolant sensor or starting the
DRBII scan tool procedure. (6) Aim Timing Light at timing scale (Fig. 7 or Fig.
8) or read magnetic timing unit. If flash occurs when
timing mark is before specified degree mark, timing is
advanced. To adjust, turn distributor housing in direc-
tion of rotor rotation. If flash occurs when timing mark is after specified
degree mark, timing is retarded. To adjust, turn dis-
tributor housing against direction of rotor rotation.
Refer to Vehicle Emission Control Information label for
correct timing specification. If timing is within 62É of
value specified on the label, proceed to step (8). If
outside specified tolerance, proceed to next step. (7) Loosen distributor hold-down arm screw
enough to rotate the distributor housing (Fig. 9 or
Fig. 6 Setting Spark Plug GapÐTypical

Tighten the hold-down arm screw and recheck timing.
(8) Turn the engine off. Remove timing light or
magnetic timing unit and tachometer. If the

INSTALLATION
(1) Position distributor in engine. Make certain that
the O-ring is properly seated on distributor. If O-ring is
cracked or nicked, replace it with new one. (2) Carefully engage distributor drive with auxiliary
shaft drive. When distributor is installed properly,
rotor will be pointing toward cylinder block. If engine
has been cranked while distributor is removed,
establish proper relationship between the dis-
tributor shaft and Number 1 piston position as
follows: (a) Rotate the crankshaft until number one piston
is at top of compression stroke. Pointer on clutch
housing should be in line with the O(TDC)mark on
flywheel. (b) Rotate rotor to a position just ahead of the
number one distributor cap terminal. (c) Lower the distributor into the opening, engag-
ing distributor drive with drive on auxiliary shaft. With distributor fully seated on engine, rotor should
be under the cap number 1 tower.
(3) Install the distributor cap. Ensure all high ten-
sion wires snap firmly in the cap towers. (4) Install hold-down arm screw and finger tighten.
(5) Install splash shield.
(6) Connect distributor pick-up connector lead wire
at wiring harness connector. (7) Set ignition timing to specification. Refer to Ig-
nition Timing.
DISTRIBUTOR PICK-UPÐ2.2L TBI, 2.5L TBI AND
2.5L MPI ENGINES
REMOVAL
(1) Remove splash shield and cap. Refer to Distribu-
tor Removal. (2) Remove rotor from shaft (Fig. 15).
(3) Remove Hall effect pick-up assembly (Fig.
16).
INSTALLATION
(1) Place pick-up assembly into distributor housing
(Fig. 16). The distributor pick-up wires may be damaged
if not properly reinstalled. (2) Install rotor (Fig. 15).
(3) Install cap and splash shield. Refer to Distribu-
tor Installation.
