Hi All,
I want to know if I should be positioning the engine and/or
distributor at a particular position prior to gapping the points.  I know that
I need to rotate the engine until the points are on the high part of one of
the lobes on the distributor, but where should the distributor be as we can
loosen the retaining screw and twist left or right to adjust.  I am
experiencing a terrible running car with backfiring out the carbs and I think
I need to start over at the points.
Thanks
Roy
