line the timing pointer up with the zero mark on the balancer, then pull the distributor and set it so the rotor points to the #1 on the distributor cap.2003 Town Car Signature - 3.27 RAR, Dual exhaust and J-mod - SOLD 9/2011

The shop half assed the timing and shuffled the wires around to make up for it. Its possible to do this, but its not the correct way and causes confusion later.
For those vac lines, red is always manifold vacuum. One goes over to the junk on the passenger side fender, the other goes to the fuel pressure regulator.86 Lincoln Town Car (Galactica).

no vaccum leak, i checked all vac lines. took it over to another shop where they changed da timing chain and gears. 3-6 teeth on da big gear were broken. new chain and gears were put in, but still da timing was left as 8-1-.....etc. still stutters when i give it gas and still has da sound of rattling marbles in a can whenever i accelerate.

Timing is still wrong. Make them fix the firing order and time it properly. Moving the wires to compensate for the distributor being misaligned is NOT the correct way to do it.86 Lincoln Town Car (Galactica).
