Best Answer

Installing the distributor on your car;

1. Set the crankshaft to top dead center in the firing position.

2. Set the rotor so it will align with spark plug wire #1 on the distributor cap when it is in the engine. The rotor will turn slightly when it meshes with the cam gear, it may take a couple of insertions to get it in the correct orientation.

3, Start the engine and then use a timing light to set the timing to the proper specification.
