]]> Comment on What position is the rotor in on the distributor when in #1 firing position? by jeff j http://www.euroclip.org/distributor/what-position-is-the-rotor-in-on-the-distributor-when-in-1-firing-position/#comment-1343 jeff j Mon, 15 Mar 2010 01:05:59 +0000 http://www.euroclip.org/distributor/what-position-is-the-rotor-in-on-the-distributor-when-in-1-firing-position#comment-1343 it's a four stroke. one has to determine if it's on the compression stroke first or you can be 180 out. gotta make sure all valves are closed on the #1 cyl, that the #1 piston is up top, and the rotor is pointing to the #1 plug on the cap. pull #1 plug. put you finger in the hole. turn the crank till your finger pops out. you'll note the your just a few degrees btdc. move it to tdc. that's done. then the rotor has to point to the #1 plug wire on the cap. you might see at this time your rotor is pointing away from the #1 hole. this is where you could be 180 out. pull the distributor, don't turn the housing. turn the rotor to the #1 position and reinstall. should be good to go with your timing light. then follow the advice above. and msc is right. the distributor doesn't care about any indexing position. as long as the cap can be turned and not be obstructed by the engine/parts when using i timing light. tip. next time, before you put the rocker/cam cover on, turn the crank till both/all rocker arms on the #1 cyl are lose/free and your crank is at tdc. both/all valves are closed. then all you gotta do is whats stated above.<br><b>References : </b><br> it’s a four stroke.

pull #1 plug. put you finger in the hole. turn the crank till your finger pops out. you’ll note the your just a few degrees btdc. move it to tdc. that’s done. then the rotor has to point to the #1 plug wire on the cap. you might see at this time your rotor is pointing away from the #1 hole. this is where you could be 180 out. pull the distributor, don’t turn the housing. turn the rotor to the #1 position and reinstall. should be good to go with your timing light. then follow the advice above.

tip. next time, before you put the rocker/cam cover on, turn the crank till both/all rocker arms on the #1 cyl are lose/free and your crank is at tdc. both/all valves are closed. then all you gotta do is whats stated above.

The rotor should point to the #1 cylinder if you have the piston up ,(TDC.) The firing order is 1-6-5-4-3-2 (clockwise) & #1 cylinder is the front cylinder on the right side of the engine ,of your standing in front of the truck.<br><b>References : </b><br>30 years working on vehicle's.
