I started rotating the dist. towards me or rotating towards the oil filter while keeping inward pressure on dist cap. Found this was stalling out although I had increased the idle speed to start this process as you suggested. So I changed direction rotating towards the engine. Seems like I got the best response and I tightened dist. pinch clamp. I checked timing with timing light & it was about 18 degrees with RPM just under 1000. I have attached a photo of where the dist. is located, about 11 o’clock compared to 9:30 with mechanical points. Does this matter? Should I attempt to rotate dist to get closer to 12 degrees?
