I just replaced the distributor in an '89 90Q and I'm going to set the
timing. The service manual has a procedure for setting timing on '87
and '88 cars using a timing light, but for the '89 it says, "Checking
ignition timing using a strobe is NOT necessary". Does this mean it
cannot be done, or does it assume everyone has a VW 1367 tool at their
disposal?
Thanks in advance (heh).
