Where are the timing marks on a 1989 accord EX??

I can't find them.

Also, is the timing at 18 degrees correct for this 2.0 ltr carbetator engine?

Are you looking for "where to shine the timing light" or changing the timing belt?

For checking with a light, there is a plug (or was from the factory) over a slit in the trans where it meets the block. Remove the plug and then view the mark(s) through that slit/hole.

From my readings - 15 BTC. Not be careful when reading the "marks". I think there are three (15 BTC, 0 TDC, 15 ATC) - from the factory the 15 BTC was a red mark. Also note that some or all of the vac lines on the dist have to be removed when doing this.
