Richard, The way I check it is take the plug out of #1 cylinder, put my thumb in the hole and crank slowly until the pressure of the compression stroke pushes my thumb away, then shine a light in the plug hole and get the piston to top dead center. Take the distributer cap off and see if the rotor is pointng at the terminal for #1. If it is, it should be good to run.
I don't know if that's the "official" way, but it always seems to work for me.
