Ive done some checks with OBD scanner and found at tickover the timing is 8 degrees before top dead centre. According to the workshop manual it should be 5 plus or minus 1
I cant find any way of adjusting the timing.

Does anyone know how to do this?

Turn the distributor slightly. 8* is correct for the 8v engines, so someone probably set that by mistake. 5* is right for the 16v.
Use a timing light when you do it to make sure it's correct

My car is 2004 grand vitara 1.6 i dont think it has a distributor.

Hmmm I thought the G16Bs all had distributors.... definitely this engine?

The engine appears to be the same but the throttle and air box etc seem to be different. Also mine has 2 coil packs directly above the spark plug 2 and 4

No dizzy on the GV not that year anyway.
The 5 deg bit is relevant with the test wire in place. Yours sounds fine. I can upload the relevant section if you want to confirm

Please upload the section. I simply plugged in the OBD scanner. Should i also have used a test wire?

I knew you would want it so had already started pasting together

Thank you

I'll be honest, I don't even know if a UK model has a monitor connector. I've never looked for one on mine.
8 degree looks bang on with out the link wire
