The plot thickens

scope it off #2, are you seeing line under tab now? You are out of whack or your balancer has spun. You need to get it to #1 TDC. pull plug, put finger over hole and wait until hard puff while you are bumping it, then stick a straight coathanger in there and turn crank with wrench to find TDC or as close as you can tell. The timing mark should be very close to 0 on tab. Now look under cap: you can either pull distributor and rotate it 180 to get you to point to #1, or just rewire cap to reflect rotor pointing to #1 tower. If the damper is no where close to TDC, then it has spun and you need to mark the hub, and start looking for a balancer as yours could come apart. I got one (neutral balance) if you need one. I feel your pain doing this through a phone.. try a blackberry, it is dreadful.

Yes get it close first with out a timing light.

You ask for help, then fired back (not a good thing). If you were to ask
a question in the future, you will get less answers because of this.

Well anyway leave that all behind. Updates?
