Andy, I think George is right on the money. Had the same thing with my C.Took off the cap and found with the #1 piston up on the compression stroke at top dead center, the rotor was not pointing at the # 1 plug wire on the cap. It was fireing between the contacts on the cap. It's been a while but I think I Got everything set a top dead center and took the rotor off and there is a small gear in there.If I remember right I took it off and turned it on the bench till the rotor would point at the #1 wire on the cap.Put it back together and shazam it worked. I may have left stuff out cause it has been a while since I did this. Sounds like what you have going on. I be Mr. Willer can give some better advice than me. Sounds like he is pretty sharp. When I got the old C it had no wires and the dist. cap was taped on upside down to get it to fire sometimes. Amazeing how jacked up they can be and still work
