You don't need the timing light -- With the marks lined up as noted previously, retard the distributer by rotating about 30 degrees counter clockwise as viewed from the rear. Pull the coil wire out of the distributer cap and hold it close to the primary terminal, that is the nut on the side of the distributer just in front of the cap, then rotate the distributer clockwise until you get a spark. Or, forget all this, start the tractor, loosen the hold down clamps and advance or retard the distributer until you get maximum rpm. You will probably need to do that anyway once you have it timed with the engine off, so why bother? The other procedures are mostly for when you have the dist/mag off, have rotated the engine and you want to reinstall.
