Did a mini tune up after buying a "beater". After doing tune up, now I have a rough idle and after in gear (when I come to a stop), check engine light comes on and truck dies. Figure it needs to be timed out. Cannot get either a 9/16" or 1/2" distributer wrench on the nut no matter what angle I come from. Best seems to be from the driver's side.

Passenger's side seems impossible because coil and aircondition units are in the way.

Also, once I do get the bolt loosened, what advance should I expect, the label on the front of the vehicle is unreadable.

(I'd donate, but I'm unemployed, help me get this going, I have a job interview on 2/28!)
