Air-cooled gasoline Vanagon I assume.
the timing scale is on the fan housing, not the flywheel end.
A regular timing light is used.
electronic or points distributor ?
if the points version............( not recommended ) , the points and dwell
have to be adjusted correctly first of course.
And the distributor not too worn.
