adjusting Ignition timing

[juliemac57 at hotmail.com (Julie Macfarlane)]

I have q's too...
The mark on the top cam (timing belt) was set so that when the timing light 
went off, it was about 1 tooth towards the back of the car. Supposedly 6 deg 
off.
The dist is set almost at the end of the adjustment range (where the 10mm 
bolt goes through)

Is this correct?
