what up fellas? been a while since i've had trouble, but now i'm back.
i was running the stock distributor in my 2f. i purchased the D.U.I. elcetronic ignition dist. the other day. i installed the part no problem but the damn thing won't run. i followed the directions to every detail.
at first i would crank the engine over and it would be a rapid series of backfires out of the tail pipe. after that i set all the plug gaps to .52. now when i crank it i only get a single regular quick, (pfts) sound, out of the carburetor and get some nice smoke. the carb is new, and everything worked fine before i swapped the distributors.
another concern is the size of the actual part. the vacume hits the oil filter and i wonder about timing adjustments. also i wonder about the order of the plugs on the cap. which one is #1, after that i know what to do. i've made sure i installed it on the correct TDC, even did both just to make sure.
any suggestions?
