Timing is very easy.

Set the engine to TDC. Pull the cps (dizzy) and line up the slot with the dot!
Start inserting it so that if you imagine the bolt in already it would be pretty much center of the cps which would also be center on the head.

Slot it in. Tighten it up. Start it, leave it to warm up.
Put a wire between TE1 & E1 in the diagnostic box and set timing to 10deg.

Let me know how you get on

You have been much help and you obviously know your stuff. Much love!! I will get back and let you know what I have discovered tomorrow when I get her all dialed in. Or if I encounter anymore problems. By the way would you know where the the A/C wire goes and how I should go about hot wiring my Fluidyne fan in.

Heres one for you I now understand what you mean from the TSRM IGN pages. But when I had the distributor matchmarks alligned, cam and crank 0 degrees TDC. How I tried it the first time. It ran it smoked when I say smoke I MEAN it looked like I was burning the barn down. There was sooo much smoke I could not even look through my garage at all. WTF??!!! I said and turned the distributor 180 out rotor pointing toward the bottom of the distributor. That is where it lay now 15 degrees before TDC. Can you explain that for me? The engine is from overseas but I dont believe it would run on the oposite end of the distributor.
