After disassembling the top of my 911s engine to track down vacuum leaks and remove the injectors for cleaning, I put it all back together, replacing the plugs, wires, cap, rotor, etc. Somehow I managed to get the plug wires into the distributor in mirror image to what they were supposed to be. The car actually ran that way, albeit very unhappily. After a lot of head scratching and re-checking, I had a D'oh! moment and found the problem. Fired right up and ran perfectly.
I've heard of people getting the pad in backwards before, red-beard. Makes for interesting braking dynamics from high speed. A clever way to turn rotors, though!
