Symptoms sound like the timing is off. Possibly 1800. Make sure when cyl.
1 is supposed to fire it is the one the rotor is aimed at, and that the
others are on the cap in the proper order. It's an easy mistake to make.
Ohter than that, check your static timing with a circuit tester to get an
initial setting.
