The timing on a Yanmar is based on the injection of fuel. You can adjust the timing by changing the shims under the injector pump. Thinner shims mean more plunger depth earlier in the rotation, thus earlier injection - timing advance. This is ignition timing similar to rotating the distributor cap.
