ahhhh... KA why didnt you say so in the first place?
timing is hell on KA, mostly because inserting the distributor is such a subjective process (eyeball 0 degrees and stick it in) really a bad way to set timing imo, the pin on the front cover is like totally in a bad spot.

anyways, make sure your at TDC for #1 cylinder an insert the distributor a hair advanced (seems to work best that way when finding timing) should fire up.. then pull it out and turn it one tooth back at a time till your running with the distributor in the center of its adjustment. (carefully take it out and bring it back )

sounds crazy but it works and saves time.
