A '68 wagon would normally have a B18D. The B18B is relatively rare.

The timing marks are 10 - 0 - 10 - 20 - 30. Clean it up more and you'll find them.

Book settings are 10 BTDC at idle of 800 RPM, and it should not be advancing at that speed. At 1500 RPM you should have 17 BTDC or so. Full advance will be around 32-34 BTDC.

You'll hear lots of conflicting advice on the timing, but that's mine...
