Hello hpar..... you will need a timing light and a set of wrenches. Then:
1 Remove the timing window cover from the top of the transaxle. Clean off any dirt or grime from the flywheel to expose the timing marks. Start the car and allow it reach normal operating temperature. Turn off the engine.
2 Connect the timing light to the battery if necessary and then to the number one ignition wire located at the front driver's side of the engine. Restart the Taurus and let it idle for 2 minutes.
3 Point the timing light at the timing window and determine the amount of adjustment needed. Loosen the mounting bolts on the distributor and rotate it slowly until the timing mark and the middle line on the timing light match.
4 Tighten the distributor mounting nuts and recheck the timing. Turn off the engine and remove the timing light. Replace the number one ignition wire.
