In no particular order

1...Suspect a rotor phasing issue. Google that

2....Suspect your methods or hardware......What do youhave for a light? If it's a "dial up" deal SUSPECT that and round up a plain old "light." No dials, no retard / advance knob

3...What are you using for timing markings and do you KNOW they are correct?

It is a fresh engine replacement. Checked it with three different timing lights. Says on website that I must run an msd box like the 6al. I will get one, and see if that does it.
