But if you take the disty out that can all change. Here is what I do to get the disty in the right place.

 

Take out cyl 1 spark plug. Turn the engine over with a spanner with your finger in the hole. When you start the feel conpression look in the hole and watch the piston come to the top. Once it's there put the disty in with the rotor pointing at one of the plug holes in the cap. Then obviouslly that is your cyl 1 spark, then work counter clockwise and put your other leads on. It should be good then.
