So Sad. such a nice day and I cannot drive my D I took off the intake manifold, mixture control unit etc. To get beadblasted.. And did a tune up while in there -Spark plugs, wires, cap, rotor and in the process took out the distributor and replaced the vacuum advance on it.. as mine was rusted to SH&t Anyhow . I put the distributor back in . set the timing to TDC and as well set the pulley to TDC And put her all back to together ever so carefully to make sure I did not miss anything.. Double check and then attempt to start. NOTHING!!! Turns over but does not kick in.. I took it all apart .. readjusted timing.. took off the right valve cover and check to make sure piston 1 was up.. Re-aligned distributor to tdc. and put back to together to try again . started up . ran really rough for a few seconds. then stalled.. Now, no matter what I try . it just turns over and backfires once and a while .. PLEASE! Anybody .. somebody . heeeeelp! Thanks So Much -Ken 00541 Loosing his mind!
