The distributor can be "fine tuned" 360 degrees if necessary. It's not limited to a few degrees like a magneto.

Just loosen the two clamps holding the distributor to its base and rotate. MARK WHERE IT IS FIRST so you have a starting point.

If you really want to get clever about it you can loosen up the clamps, start cranking the tractor, and slowly turn the distributor as you crank until the tractor starts.

I seem to remember that you said something about using too long of a screw and shearing something off in the distributor... What was that all about? Franky if you did something like that the whole distributor is suspect.
