Hey guys my cars not starting,well it was. I’m not sure if it’s that I’m not stabbing my new Distbutor at tdc, or if it’s a wire. So I see 3 relays under dash but the one hanging looks really bad. Anyone know what this might be for? I see a white with pink stripe wire and it was connected to the green wire. Any input is much appreciated

If the car was running and starting, and THEN you "stabbed" in a new distributor and it won't start your issue is most likely timing related. If this is the case, get to top dead center on the compression stroke, put distributor in pointing at #1 on the rotor and start the car and set timing.

Double - triple check your dist install... last things done are usually the culprit.....
Watched a " will it run" on a 77 porsche on youtube.... After he installed new spark plugs and wires all his car would do was back fire. Destroyed his air box ( expensive on a Porsche)... He chased it with new parts and nothing,,,, I kept saying " go back to the wires/distributor" while I watched it...
He finally came to the conclusion he was 180 out.. NOPE......
He had installed the spark plug wires on his cap the wrong way... If the rotor turned clockwise, he had installed them counterclockwise......

Still checking. Bought new battery and alternator . It cranks no start. I take back what I said before I said it turned on and turned off. It was more like it wanted to start but didn’t, just cranked . Crank was weak took alternator to have checked failed replaced but still doing same thing. Stabbed over and over. I have 2 foxs so I’m pretty good at setting timmng. Usually it they fire off for me but this one is a different from my 89. The wiring on that relay that’s hanging off Dosent look soo factory. Anyone know what that relay is for? The one hanging in the pics.
