Default Re: Timing question

JSeery and flatjack. The only reason I am considering cam timing is because have move the distributor timing all way to the top, which think is retarding the timing. Any other position and it never tried to fire.

George. I did as you suggested. I rechecked the plug wires at the distributor and on the plugs. They are correct.
I do want to watch the valves and how they open and close and where the piston is when they are. I wa hoping I could see the crank and watch the valves thru the spark plug hole with the timing cover off but I cant see thecrank. And I cant see the piston thru the spark plug hole. I am considering pulling the head to verify all this. I did the finger over the spark plug hole to find TDC and then looked at the rotor position. It looks a little off. Again I'm going re-look at all this again.

Guys thanks for your suggestions. I taking them heart and checking things suggested. I really appreciate your thoughts.
