Don't forget, though, that the adjustable timing sprocket will change
only the cam timing on a 4 cylinder car, but on the 5-cyl it will also
change ignition timing.  The ignition distributor is driven by an
intermediate shaft off the timing belt on the 4-cylinder cars, but is
cam driven on the 5-cylinder.
