225 Slant Six Crank but Won't Start (Fuel but No Spark, Dist. Rotor turns)
Take the dist out, take #1 plug out,get #1 cylinder at top dead center on the compression stroke ,put the dist back in the motor with the rotor pointing at the #1 plug wire position of the dist. after it's seated. The gear is angled so the rotor will move as you set the dist into the motor and you need to anticipate this. The car should start now and you will then be able to adjust the timing.The reason I tell you to do this is that you may be a tooth off in one direction or the other. There is also the possibility the timing chain is jumped a tooth because it's worn out. If it won't run when you have the dist in correctly at #1 the condencer could be weak or shot,the timing chain can th too loose or jumped a tooth.If it's the chain you gotta pull off the front cover .
