Trying to start my previously running engine after putting new seals everywhere and reinstalling it and my distributor. My distributor only goes in one way and clamps to the mounting bracket so it never moved it’s original position. So I put it in and just pulled #1 plug and watched it go to TDC on compression stroke. The rotor is pointing pretty closely to the contact on the distributor tower I have the #1 plug wire on. And have the wires on the cap CW 1-4-3-2. But can’t see the O at TDC Only this red notch and mark that was there when I bought the car. Now I’m even more confused because the pictures I’ve been looking at the red mark 27° mark doesn’t match the location it is on my fan. The red mark/notch in the pictures is next to a wide support fin, and mine isn’t. Any thoughts would be appreciated very much. It’s a 74 1.8 when I try to start it up it sputters and totally acts way out of time popping out of the carb a bit. Attached Image

I see thanks everyone (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif) the red threw me off, was thinking usually red is the 27° black 7.5° white TDC.
