It is on the bell housing, it counts the teeth on the flywheel. It needs to be adjusted very close but not touching the teeth. Like, tighten it down to touch and back it off 1/4 - 1/2 turn.

I figured that's what you meant but thought I should clarify for Glen. Or Denise , who will have to report back to Glen.
