On mine, there's a single pole round (brown?) connector near the firewall on the passenger's side. With this connection shorted to ground the ignition timing is set to whatever the spec is (gee, I'm great help tonight! :D )

I think it's supposed to be 5 degrees BTDC with the connector shorted, which (from memory) was 10 degrees without the short. You may find you can run a little more - listen out for pinging, and retard as necessary.

Yeah its the brown, round one. You can run up to about 8 or 9 degree's without pinging depending on how clean your injectors are.
