In that screen shot you took, i have already pulled out the dist, and rotated the shaft 1 tooth on the drive gear = REALLY advanced.. so thats what it is as RETARDED as I could locate the dist in that photo.

There are 12 teeth on the dist drive gear ... 360/12= 30 degrees. So moving the rotor shaft only 1 tooth, moves it a whole 30 degrees. Which is too far.

Today, I decided to shave off a couple mm of the black plastic of the plug.

With this 'modification' I was able to correctly index the rotor, and with the dist fully ADVANCED, I can get it to 8degrees, BTDC.


Mike,

The #1 scribed MARKER is located between the GREEN WIRE PLUG and CAP metal clip. And the next ignition from the 1-6-2-4-3-5 sequence (CCW) is #6. You might have inadvertently installed the ignition cables incorrectly. Double check your work.
