For a 22re timing; I always bring the engine to TDC, assuming the chain is aligned properly in regards to the cam and crank. Then turn the crank to 5* and then insert the dizzy with the match marks at 12 oclock. The hold down bolt will fall about dead center of the adjustment range and the rotor will point at #1. Then you short TE1 and E1 and fine tune it again to 5*. It should need little to no adjustment if you did it right. I have seen so many engines where the dizzy is inserted at TDC and then they try and adjust ignition timing by moving the dizzy to one extreme or the other. That will allow the engine to run, bet it is never right and it usually falls on it's face. You should snap a pic of where your hold down bolt on the dizzy is currently. I can tell whether or not it's timed right. Once your timing is correct, then you can accurately diagnosis the rest...
