How do you set timing on a 2.2 1985 Chevy Cavalier engine after the distributor was pulled and not marked?

Remove spark plugs, rotate engine with ratchet on balancer bolt (clockwise).
Place finger on #1 spark plug hole, when you feel air coming out, rotate until balancer mark is aligned with timing mark (O degrees).
Install dist. So that rotor points to #1 cylinder (on cap).
