i was wondering if any one could tell me how to jump the te1 e1 terminals while timing. do i start the truck already jumped, or do i jump the terminals after the truck is already started and idling? and how long should i keep them jumped.do i cut the truck off and remove the wire after a certain amount of time. or do i just pull the wire out while the truck is running please help this is all thats holding back completion of complete rebuild plus, torker cam, pacesetter header, k and n intake, msd 6 off road (not hooked up yet)

 

from the FSM, you can read the section regarding setting the timing here. From the FSM it appears you install the jumper with the engine running and you remove the jumper once you have the timing set to 5 BTDC and tightened the hold-down bolt for the distributor. Then recheck the timing to make sure you are at 10 - 14 BTDC at idle.
