Ignition Timing issue

With the TEN and Ground jumped, the car should be around 10" BTDC... Well my car is not.. It's about a half inch (to the left) before the timing plate.. When I move the distributor from full one way to the other, it doesn't move enoght to even lign up with the plate..

Any ideas?

The rubber dampner is worn out and has slipped causing you timing marks to be off... Thats assuming your car is running normal and ok....

1. Timing belt jumped and left head is not in time

2. TEN is not actually working. (corrosion on pins, not actually being in diag mode)

3. Pulley failure
