Default Re: Brand new engine won't start

Like Chuck said, are you sure its timed on No 1, not one of the others? It's easy to verify, just make sure the rotor button is pointing to the No 1 contact in the distributor cap.
How good is he battery. If it is poor, you may be running short of volts while cranking to give a spark.
Check it through one thing at a time. You'll get it going.
