Oh man we were almost ready to pull our hair out on this one! I kept thinking I followed the factory diagram why did the car not start? Then when my mechanic friend came over the first question he had was how does the distributor rotate then he pulled of the cap and had me crank it over he said-Mike this distributor rotates counter-clockwise, I think that diagram is wrong. Then the search was on for which contact on the distributor was for cylinder #1. When he found it he had me crank the car over-fired rights up.
