what is the firing order of a 1992 firebird with a 3.1? how do you adjust the valves?

RE: firing order

123456 and you dont adjust the valves unless you swap out the rocker studs for adjustable.

'92 Firebird is gen1 iron heads, so they should have adjustable rockers/studs.

Here is the procedure:
- Rotate the engine so the cam is on the base circle for the cylinder you are working on
- Rotate the pushrod with your fingers while tightening the rocker adjusting nut
- When the pushrod stops spinning, this is the zero lash point
- Tighten but another 1-1/2 turns to preload the lifter

in all actuality, if you need to adjust them something is wrong. they are hydraulic so you don't need to adjust them, unless you have done something to warrant so.

what i did was put a new set of heads on the new engine. i put new rockers arms on it and i am having a problems with getting started on what to do. i did a swap with the engine and put it in my s10. i used the tbi intake instead of the mpfi because of no computer changes would be needed and i am backfiring through the tbi. i think i said all of this right, haha.

Your distributor is 180* out.

Put number 1 on TDC COMPRESSION STROKE and set up like this
