Thanks to you all for your replies.At the heart of this is that it doesn't
really matter if the cap has been rotated, as long as you have number one at
TDC and the firing order is right. I just wanted to go back to the original
position, and I wanted to know what point on the cap was originally selected to
be number one.I examined a number of photos and came up with the drawing I
attached to my earlier email- number one and five were either side of the coil
port. Simon says he believes this is right (sorry Simon, I couldn't open your
attachment)but Chris's photo has number one two more positions further around
the clockwise rotation.
The thing that restricts choosing certain positions of the cap, is the vacuum
advance, which will bump into either the engine or the vacuum advance.
Anyway, both of these suggestions will work, but I'm still not sure what the
original set up was.
