I really don’t think the mechanical timing could be wrong following the steps that were in the video I linked. I don’t have a fuel pressure gauge or a compression gauge I’ll have to rent them from the auto parts store but I can do that for sure. I probably need to pull the cap and double check the distributor, I had a super hard time getting it to line up, I finally got it but the copper tab on the rotor was slightly off center from the arrow cast into the distributor, I’m talking like 1/16th or less from being centered. I figured it was good since when the distributor gear meshes with the cam gear it moves the rotor a significant amount, but I did think that was weird, I don’t know if my description makes sense but I’ll probably pull the cap and double check that</p></blockquote><p></p>
