You should be able to get close enough if you adjust the bypass air
screw to get the engine idling at 850-900rpm and then set the distributor
to 16-17 deg advance WITHOUT bridging the diagnostib plug. It may
be necessary to repeat the procedure twice if the distributor was a long
way out of position.

Then, if you follow the procedure in the FSM you should find that when
you bridge the diagnostib plug the engine speed drops by 100rpm or so,
and the timing drops to very close to 10 deg advance. If needed, you can
make a fine adjustment to the distributor to obtain exactly 10 deg.
