Set it at 1/4". Do not rotate CCW to set point, CW only. If you go past 1/4" then don't back up, just go on around again. The backlash will foul you up.

Gary..... ..whats to explain? Picture is morebitter than words. The frontmount 2-bolt distributor is driven by an "off-set tang" scheme. You doubt? Taker off and lookie-look. Instructions were quite well written. Iff'n yer distributor rotor don't eazily drop into the camshaft slott, yer doin' sumptin WRONG.

And NO, there is NO-WAY to time the frontmount distributor with a ignition timing light..... ....respectfully, Dell
