I just had my carb and distributor redone, and after replacing, can't get 'er to fire up.
Is there a timing mark on the crankshaft pulley, or another one perhaps somewhere that doesn't involve me having to pull the hood and radiator to see the crankshaft pulley? Or any other tip that will make it easier to set the timing? I tried pulling plug 1, and using a wire to gauge the height, but that didn't do anything for me.
I found this tip on the ssb forum, and this makes sense to me, but I wanted to check with some more experienced hands if it will work.
"In other words , rotate dist until points are closed, then rotate dist opposite direction of shaft rotation until point just start to open and rotor pointing to number one. If it is not at number one on the cap, just call that spot number one and go with firing order counter clockwise around cap."
