A lot of times when you do ignition work, especially if you pull the distributor
or drive gear, you'll set it up 360 crank degrees off (180° at the distributor).
A quick check for this is to advance all the wires two positions on the cap, or
just switch them directly across on a 4 cylinder engine. If you have made this
VERY common mistake it will make a world of difference!
