74 2.0 D-Jet
Heading to the garage now to start the install and my main, unresolved-in-my-brain question is if i need to hook up the vacuum line that is on my current stock distributor, on the 123. |

I did not test spark to every cylinder - i honestly can't remember which ones i did. I should have been more diligent on that test.
The FIRST TWO things i'm going to do: - CONFIRM by ID of stamped "0" in the notch that I'm truly at TDC. - if that doesn't change things, I'm putting the original back in and see what that reveals. re: finding TDC - I'm ok to spin the motor with a ratchet on the center bolt of the fan, right? Haven't been doing it that way - I've been turning it over by blocking one wheel and turning the other in 5th but it sure would be easier to find/confirm "0" if i could keep watching the notch while going slowly.... |
