Lightbulb not sure what the distributor looks like but if its anything like on the

5000 then there are 5 allen head caps, one next to each injector outlet on the top of the fuel distributor that have an allen bolt that pushes down on a spring underneath and then a metal diaphragm. I'm assuming you meant injector balancing? Clockwise turns increase flow and anti-clockwise decreases. I found more details on the pelican parts Porsche forums. 1/8 turns are safe adjustments and never turn more than just under 1 full turn tighter than stock or you'll be replacing the distributor. Measure test results per cylinder with graduate cylinder in mL. I had to switch some injectors between cylinders to get mine balanced. Do at your own risk.
