Pride gone... asking for help

pull a plug and verify spark when cranking: lay it on valve cover or metal ground and watch. plugewire> 153624 clockwise wire routing? thumb on #1 hole and bump motor until compression, then run a stiff wire in there and manually turn crank until you think your at TDC, is your rotor pointing to #1? Make it so, maybe a tad BTDC but 0 will run it. low compression motor will run on even bad gas....do you have a pump shot on throttle blip? put some gas in a diner ketchup squeeze bottle and fill bowl via vent tube: squirt it down carb while assistant cranks. careful of any backfire. rotor top contactor is either spring steel or button in cap is carbon on spring but I read you Ohm'd that out and read continuity....distributor can move more but its a second lock bolt under distributor.
