Some people have told me about being off 180 degrees, but I don't understand
what this means. I made sure that the #1 cylinder is firing on the
compression stroke. #1 Top dead center after the intake is closed and the
mark on the flywheel is lined up. Rotor is pointing at the right direction,
towards #1 contact. Wires are good and in sequence.
