Thanks guys. Got the timing adjusted and no more rattling. First, I found and painted the 16deg mark. There had been an earlier posting (sorry, I forget who from) that suggested jacking up the right front wheel and turning it while in 5th gear to move the flywheel around -- that worked great.
There's a really good older posting by Ari that really helped explain stuff, too -- the link is below.
I also checked the plug gaps, cleaned the distributor cap and rotor, and r/r the fuel filter, but I'm sure it was the timing that had gone off.
Thanks all for the great resources here on TSN!
Rod.
