i can't fiqure this out. my first mistake was not remembering how i took the distributor off w/o marking it. well, i researched and am a bit confused. i am reinstalling my distributor. i check the cylinder 1 with my finger for compression and set to 0' tdc. got to tdc, not on the bottom stroke. i then put all the plugs back on the cap. i try to install the distributor with the rotor pointing to the one cycl cap plug... however when i get it finally all the way in it's like not lined up. so i still put the cap on, and try to fire her up. it cranks , but doesn't crank over. it's better than before because the thing wouldn't even crank the car (tpi/pip replaced). the coil, plugs, wires, connectors, are good. fuel syst was just replaced few mo ago. so i'm pretty sure it has to do with the timing. is the rotor suppose to be pointing to a #1 cycl or #1 cap plug? does it matter how in install the distributor into the engine? i'm sure it has to do with the timing setup and distr install. was suppose to show car at pony trails today instead working on car. ..help...
