How do you set the timing on a 1997 Honda Prelude?

To set the timing on a 1997 Honda Prelude, first, ensure the engine is at top dead center (TDC) on the compression stroke for cylinder one. Then, locate the timing marks on the crankshaft pulley and the timing cover; align the marks according to the manufacturer's specifications. If necessary, adjust the distributor by loosening its hold-down bolt and rotating it until the timing light indicates the correct timing. Finally, tighten the distributor bolt and recheck the timing to ensure accuracy.
