When you turn the distributor, you are not turning the rotor, you're turning the cap and distributor body. So, turning the distributor the direction of the rotor rotation (say that 10 times fast) will advance the timing.
I am 75% sure that I turned the distributor the direction of rotation (counterclockwise when looked at from the side of the cap) to advance the timing, and clockwise to retard.
Keith, I didn't think any 9000s had EZK ? I thought EZK was only for cars that didn't have the LH injection.. could be wrong on that.
