    Default Timing on a 82 Civic 1300?

    Anyone know where the timing mark is on one of these and what the firing order is? I know by heart about 6 different firing orders but never ventured into one of these lil cars.

    I have spark knock really bad and it spits and sputters after it warms up. I know some of that is the timing so I am just fixing as I go.

    The distributor seems easy enough but where is #1 suppose to be?
    What should the timing be set at from the factory?
    What is the firing order?

    Thanks in advance for any help.

    Chris what did you buy now?

    Fuck stance. Stance is for kids in skinny jeans with Justin Beiber haircuts. You don't need stance when you got swagger.
