I have been cleaning up my engine bay.
I shortened all the hoses,
relocated the starter coil,
re routed some wires,
shortened/ rerouted that metal fuel line to the carb
replaced the PVC valve and fuel filter
and the one thing that was really dumb in hindsite is I pulled the distributer to get some wires out from around it and I didn't make a note of where it was pointed (stupid stupid stupid)
I cranked the engine by hand so the timimg mark on the fly wheel lined up and installed the distributer to where it is pointing toward cyilinder 1 as best I could.
When I start it, it turns over but won't light up. When I pull the accellerator wire, I see fuel going into the carb. Starter coil was nice and strong 2 days ago.
What should I check? Is it possible I have the dist. so far off that it it won't fire?
