just loosen the bolt on the distributor hold down, and turn it counter-clockwise to advance and clockwise to retard. If you have a timing light that would be your best bet. if not, advance it till the motor starts to ping or stumble then back it of till that stops. its not the most exact or best way to do it but if you have a timing issue that should help.
