Re: Engine starting issues
Back to basics....
Remove the spark plug for cylinder #1... Have an assistant bump the key while you have your thumb over the spark plug hole... You will feel compression pressure start to build up in the cylinder...stop and turn off the key.... By hand , turn the crank pulley until the timing mark on the crank pulley is aligned with the 10 degree mark on the timing tab... Remove the distributor cap...the rotor should be pointing at cyl #1 distributor cap post..if its not, rotate the distributor to get it to be lined up... If it is not possible to align, remove the distributor and reinstall with correct clocking... Most backfires occur when distributor is 180 ot of phase...firing 6 instead of 1... Let us know how you go...
