mcintbg Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 I am still having trouble getting the manta back to life after the rotor arm broke. I have fiddled and changed that much I am sure I must have the basics wrong now Can anyone tell me if the leads are on the distributor in the right order ? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Binnacle-ZA Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 1-3-4-2. Looks Ok. But it looks like you've got a rotated Dizzy (180deg). This can happen when the timing is set off the wrong cylinder or something. I've seen it before, in fact, mine is the same (wasn't always, ). It can work fine, but isn't technically correct. The link below has a useful PDF. CIH tune up It's about the Bosch dizzys, but the same principles stand for us with Delcos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moodoo Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 Yeh, you can setup the timing for cylinder 4, not cylinder 1, but will still work quite fine that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
