98 Camry Timing Question

Hi-
How do you adjust (set) the timing on a '98 Camry. It has no distributor to adjust, can anyone help me out? I've had several older Camrys, but this is new to me. An help appreciated.

No adjustment available, timing is ECM control base on input from MAF, Cam Sensor, Crank Sensor and TPS. Oh, and sometimes the knock sensor(s).

Why do you need to adjust the timing?

N.E.O.

I just put a new timing belt, waterpump, cam-crank,oil-pump seals etc,.
It runs great. I was just wondering. I've had several 92-93's.

They don't need any further adjustment if you have aligned the timing marks correctly. You can check the timing but usually that is for other reasons.

N.E.O.
