Best Answer

With the flywheel timing mark aligned at zero, #1 cylinder (front left facing engine) should be at top dead center and distributor rotor should be pointing at #1 post (1st post clockwise past the battery connector on the dist cap). If the distributor has been removed and reinstalled, the rotor may point at the opposite post (180deg out). If so, the distributor will have to be lifted enough to allow the rotor to be turned back to the #1 post. Be careful, if you try firing the engine with the timing significantly off, she will kick back into the starter, possibly damaging the starter gear or worse....! Once started, set the timing to 12deg btdc....good luck! Mike
