moosens Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 Interesting ! Jumping into the pool blind here I'll guess you are looking to get proper ignition timing. Lots of archives here. Make sure the cap is on correctly and the correct one for your distributor. Old school there are ND and Hitachi. NGK wires and plugs are top dog Making sure the cap shows #1 to the front passenger side take out spark plug #1 and hand crank the engine with a 22mm socket and put a finger over the open hole as you crank. When you feel pressure against your finger that is the compression stroke. Now you need to fine tune. Get something that won't break to go into the plug hole and using the crank - not making rotation - gently going back n forth find where the piston come to its peak of travel by watching the object you used. Once you are comfortable your there if the cap is on correctly and wires too you should start right up. Hope that's what you needed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
