distributor installing into fresh 318
Chrieeeest. Ignore that crap
Determine no1 "ready to fire" as I outlined
Set the timing marks to WHERE YOU WANT initial timing. About 10-12 for a stocker, 15 or so BTC for a mild cam and 15-20 BTC for a fairly wild cam. Use your head
Set the dist in with rotor just appproaching the corner of "what" tower you are going to use
Set the dist body so you "have room" to time it, and confirm the tower you are pointing to with the rotor
Then just adjust the dist. so that the reluctor is pointed to the center of the pickup coil
You don't need to make a bullshit mark on the dampener.
Get out your light. When you first crank it, you can quickly check timing on the light if you must.
