I have a 1990 Chev Pick up 4x4 8 cyl 350 a/c auto trans .I had a intake manifold gasket replaced and when I got my truck back it sounded like the lifters were clacking.it never sounded like that before so I imeadiately went to the check to see if it was in time . I can't see the 0 deg mark on the tinimg flag and need to know where it is located. I knoe that on the firewall there is a wire to disconnect to set the timing at 0 deg which I did , there is also a round tube on the timing mark flag which I was told is where 0 deg is , I just need to know that this is correct or if it isn't where on the flag should I set it. Also now since the repair has been made to the intake gaskets I have Check engine soon light up , what would cause this once again it was not there before the repair was made.My oil pressure when driving at a sustained speed also it a little different it stays at about 15 psi when it is warm , seems to be ok to me but I thought my oil pressure was a little higher.

Optional Information: 1990 Chevrolet PU 1500 350
Already Tried:
I set the timing to be close to tube on timing mark flag.
