!964 122S, (B-18d) Will not run, after engine rebuild?

The easiest mistake to make when reassembling is to not have the distributor in sync with the cam. The timing marks on the cam/crank gears gears is for TDC on compression stroke for #4 cylinder (closest to the flywheel) if I remember correctly. I'd bet you have the distributor wired 180 degrees out. Easily checked by removing the Valve cover and watching the valves and comparing to where the distributor rotor is pointing? Have you tried switching the plug wires? -- Dave
