[QUOTE="desertcamel, post: 1589076, member: 250160"] it depends on how its driven...of its an off set dog it will only fit in one way but if its worm driven then it may be in the wrong place...it should have been fitted with the rotor arm pointing in the same direction as the original..... out with no1 plug, hand brake off, second gear,engine switched off. pull forwards with finger over plug. stop when you feel air passing ya finger.[its nearing TDC on comp stroke] now you need the piston at tdc,i use an old ariel in the plug hole,pull slowly till its at tdc. find out your fifing order,normally 1,3,4,2 but youll need to know if its clockwise or anti... then simply put the correct leads on starting with no1....and after all that if it doesnt start you may need another disdsy. EDIT...a good answer above doesnt deserve a thumbs down....... [/QUOTE]
