No start after intake and carb swap. Stumped
Try rotating the housing so the rotor is pointing between #1 and #8 terminals a little closer to #1 than #8.
Why not do it right?
1...Remove no1 plug.
2...With finger stuck in no1 plug hole, bump engine until you START to feel compression. If you are unfamiliar, you may have to go 'round a couple times
3...When you start to feel compression, STOP and look for the marks which should be "coming up" Bump or wrench the engine NOT NOT for TDC but rather where you want the timing, AKA 8-10 or so for a stock cam, more for a performance cam
3...Insert dist so rotor points towards where the no1 tower in the cap will be. Rotate dist CW until points are closed or until reluctor tip is past pickup coil
4...Rotate dist. advanced (CCW) until points just open or until reluctor is about center of pickup coil
5..AS CRACKEDBACK has pointed out, you can also connect your timing light after installing the cap, and check the timing "on the starter."
6...Snug down dist a little to keep it in place and
START THE ENGINE.
