How do I adjust a Dodge Ram 2500 setting for timing of a 5.9 Liter engine?

To adjust the timing on a Dodge Ram 2500 with a 5.9-liter engine, you typically need to use a timing light. First, ensure the engine is at operating temperature and set it to idle. Then, locate the timing marks on the harmonic balancer and the timing tab on the engine. Adjust the distributor slightly while monitoring the timing light until the timing aligns with the specified factory setting, usually around 12-14 degrees BTDC for this engine. Always consult the vehicle’s service manual for specific details and torque specifications.
