I didn't think the ratios would let that happen, but maybe i missed something.
thanks, i'll double check that in a bit
yea...you need TDC on the compression stroke. There is TDC compression stroke and TDC exhaust stroke. Take out the all the spark plugs and put the plug wire in #1 cylinder (w/out spark plug), and turn over the crank(better by hand) when the plug wire pops up your on the compression stroke, after that just set it on TDC and recheck distr. Hope that helps
