New Build Startup Issue

The dist fires as the the trailing edge of the reluctor passes the pole piece & the shaft is turning CW. Set the timing pointer to 15-20* BTDC for a quick start. These two things have to be lined up. You could be on #1 or # 6 cyl on compression. You will need determine which cyl; one method is too remove a valve cover & watch valve operation. It doesn't matter if you use #1 or #6, as long as you have the plug wire positions/firing order correct.
