[H.G.P.]

OK. thanks.....I remember now that in the dial reading for the overlap I went 360 from the dots up positions. Intake opening.

So the following 360 the rockers loosen, valves closed. And here the distrib is pointing at the #1 so I think I'm ok.

So if I have:

1. Spark

2. Fuel

3. Timing (advanced best or retard ??)

4. Compression

5. Adequate starter torque


the engine starts, correct? Engine turns by hand currently OK. I'm not sure how much power from the starter I should be listening for though:

How fast will the starter rotate on a rebuild?

If the starter rotates, and a no start, which direction should I try to rotate the dizzy?

Finally, if the above no start, then I will use the compression gauge. (I can hear the wooshing of the cylinders on hand crank though, but if I need an antire new set of Ps and Cs so be it)
