In order to check the timing you need to remove the SPOUT connector. Just as described by sn95gt19. And, yes, it's located right next to the distributor - should be just lying there near the lower intake.
You can also leave the SPOUT in and check what's called 'total timing'. For example, my total timing is set to 33 degrees. Try 12-14 degrees with the SPOUT out or 31-34 degrees with the SPOUT in. Best way to check fuel pressure is with the engine under load. Autometer makes a nice in car electric gauge, but it's around $185. My buddy has one in his 91 coupe - very nice setup. You also may want to run a quick code scan just to see if anything is showing up there. Good luck, E
