To all who responded on my timing belt problems, Thanks for the help.
Now to tuning issues---have 82' 924, 2.0, without having all the special tools and equipment needed, how do you set air/fuel and adjust the feul injection, I see the hex nut that can be turned at front of intake, but thats it.

Slow down and you'll save yourself a lot of money and grief.

Tell us what's wrong with the car.

Not much you can do without a specialized manual, unless you want to attempt something close to watch repair on your own. Lots of ways to mess up the fuel distributor. I'd look elsewhere for problems first.

82' 2.0, 924. I changed plugs, wires, cap, rotor, coil, thermostat, all vacum hoses, all coolant hoses, wp belt and timing belt, runs well except for smells extremely rich, no vibration, just hoping to set air/fuel ratio, idle
as best i can.

How's your fuel mileage?

Is you tailpipe interior coated with black soot?

Are your spark plugs coated with black soot?

Does the 82 have the frequency valve off the fuel distributor like the 80? If so, a non-functioning frequency valve can cause a rich condition.
