well i have great new it was the onlything i hadnt tryed
i figured how this was doin the 180 i manged to get it right i put the distrib in like normal everything on its mark rotated the engine once rest the distrib so now when i ever line the pullys up the distrib mark is corect duno if it helped or not but was the first thing i did
then i got all my igniters the mitzi one tested with resistance metter and put highst to lowest i tryed my lowest one but could get readings vise versa and when i tryed gave no spark so that one was off to the trash then i tryed the nxt one which was 1500 reistance
and walla spark so i hooked everything up except i left all trailing disconected for simplicety
and duh duh duh she was goin almost broke into tears lol
so then i caryed on setin up hook trailing up with the other 1600 igiter
get the idel down play with the mixtures get timming right the went for a drive awsome im soo happy
any one who has a carter does yours pulsate?is that normal im afaid its no good doin that or maybe it needs more power or i need to change my regulater spring
and also i noticed when i got the car goin and took the distrib out after it had been runnin a while the gear was covered in a yelow milk shake lookin colour heres a pic
i checked the dipstick and it seemed alrite should i do another oil change?
i hope this helps you zduford and all the best i think iv sheard most of the info that iv tryed maybe later ill try the gm igniter again for leading and see what happens and maybe update
i just had to get this out im gonna go for another drive yayaya
almost dieing from my exsaughts leaks lol

i honestly dont know why i posted that paragraph ya have to rotate the pully two rotations to get a full rotation of the dizzy i think not positive
so what was happen was when i was pullin the dizzy with the pully set at leading i was allways fidin my dizzy set at 180 from what i had it at and was confused but if im correct its 2pully rotations - a dizzy or the other way round not trust me on that one
but any way to answer ya question
i set the dizzy and the pully at base timing. Then i Rotated the pully one revolution. Pulled the dizzy out, and rotated the dizzy back to its mark and put it back in
honestly this shouldnt be the reason why i got it goin i think it was the igniter set i had but i still dont know
hmm hopefully i didnt confuse ya more lol
