Alright I promise I have searched and i haven't found anything. Just curious where the location of the coil and distributor is on the motors? All new to me I had an 89 Fox and it was sitting right in the front I could adjust timming change my cap and rotor and i dont even know if these things work the same? Forgive me guys.

There is no standard old coil and distributor. Its coil on plug design. There is no turn the distributor to advance, retard timing. You need a programmer like a Diablosport Predator to do that kinda stuff. Welcome to the Mod motor SN95.

you have a coil on top of each spark plug. only way to change timing is with a tuner(timing adjusters work too but not as well). theres no distributer on the 4.6 motor.
