Default setting ignition timing on 92 accord 5sp man.

I need help on how to set the ignition timing on my 92 accord. I can't seem to locate where the pointer is located on the engine so I can set the timing using my timing light. Thanks for any help.

I think 92 is the older style with a "window" on the bellhousing & markings on the flywheel??

Should I be able to see the window when looking down from above the engine? Maybe there is some sort of a plug covering the window? I wish I had a service manual but my library doesn't have one.

In the General Tech section, which is where I moved this, there is a sticky at the top (Common DIY Threads) it has a link to sites you can download one.

Anyway, look below the dist, towards the front of the car, where the engine and trans meet- is there a black rubber plug? I'm with Jim, can't remember.
The pic is for a 91. Also know that the sevice connector needs to be jumped when doing this, if not you will be fighting the ECU.
