On the drivers side fender, it's the smaller round yellow plug with only 2 spade slots.

thanks for the response. So I just get either a wire or paper clip to those two spades and I should be able to time it without the computer interfering

Yes, that's all that is required...
but you might want to adjust your idle speed too, and recheck your timing.

when you jump the connector make sure the check engine light flashes steady. If it blinks a code, fix that first. then check the timing.
