I post this same question on another forum and am getting different answers. I hope you guys can help me out.
I get my engine turned to TDC on compression stroke, balancer is at 0, drop in distributor and rotor is pointed at #1 spark plug. But, when I put the cap on and go to turn the dist. so #1 on the cap is above the rotor, I can only turn it so far until one of those little nubs on the distributor hits my fuel rail (line across) and can't turn any further. So #1 on the cap is not directly over the rotor. Any ideas?
