I am trying to get my M started after sitting 6 months. It was running when it was parked. I re-wired it with a 12 volt system according to Bob M's schematic and have fire to the points. It backfires through the breather. I lined up the the pointer with the first of the pair of notches on the compression stoke and find the rotor button is pointing straight toward the ceiling.
